The BOXY BROWN of Nantoraka is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by the Director with an iron fist, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, triple-decker prams, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 10.7 billion Nantorakans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Administration also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nuusrora. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 85.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Nantorakan economy, worth a remarkable 1,859 trillion dra'nis a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Trout Farming. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 173,741 dra'nis, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 522,005 per year while the poor average 45,140, a ratio of 11.6 to 1.

TV coverage of music festivals consists mostly of backstage interviews, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, political activists are routinely executed, and the typical murderer weighs 150kg and has hairy arms. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nantoraka's national animal is the African crowned eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Director Is Greatism.

Nantoraka is ranked 9,574^th in the world and 683^rd in Lazarus for Most Patriotic, with 59.26 flags saluted per person per day.
