The Watchmen of Rorschach is a gargantuan, cultured nation, remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, frequent executions, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 37.016 billion Rorschachians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Environment, Education, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 88.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Rorschachian economy, worth a remarkable 2,359 trillion pounds of flesh a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Book Publishing industry. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is 63,737 pounds of flesh, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Glittering new sports stadiums adorn every city and town, murder victims' families receive windfall payouts when the murderers are executed, toddlers are wielding machine guns in the name of national defense, and birth rates have hit an all-time low. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rorschach's national animal is the buzzard, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Rorschach is ranked 28,461^st in the world and 58^th in Texas for Most Developed, scoring 73.47 on the Human Development Index.
