The Medical Techno-Federation of Doctors Orvos is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Prime Doctor Lyfia Alpeis no Azuma with a fair hand, and notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, anti-smoking policies, and daily referendums. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 4.56 billion Orvosians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chiremba. The average income tax rate is 78.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Orvosian economy, worth 242 trillion Meddygs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. Average income is 53,086 Meddygs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Posters on 'Orvosian Values' advise against being proud of Doctors Orvos, liberals and conservatives try to disqualify each other's candidates on the grounds that "their ideas would never work in the real world", every new building project has to undergo a five-year environmental impact study before it can go ahead, and burning twigs to keep warm while lost in the wild is now a felony. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Doctors Orvos's national animal is the Tardigrade, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Secularism.

Doctors Orvos is ranked 247,697^th in the world and 281^st in The Free Nations Region for Highest Crime Rates, with 1.94 crimes per hour.
