The Free Land of Nord Botten is a massive, cultured nation, renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, unlimited-speed roads, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 1.091 billion Nord Bottenians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 92.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Nord Bottenian economy, worth 176 trillion marks a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 161,353 marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Teenage male videogamers often suffer repetitive strain wrist injuries, married couples must call each other "darling" or risk a fine, Leader's power is effectively nullified as no bill becomes law without the upper house's support, and college students make ends meet by selling their kidneys. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nord Botten's national animal is the wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Nord Botten is ranked 142,869^th in the world and 7,139^th in The North Pacific for Most Armed, with 0.13 Weapons Per Person.
