The Dragon Republic of Torm is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Bahamut with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 6.625 billion Paladins 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 enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mount Celestia. The average income tax rate is 78.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Tormic economy, worth 448 trillion platinums a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 67,682 platinums, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Museums have more touchscreens on display than artifacts, there has been a rapid increase of noise complaints over the sound of buzzing bees, the Supreme Court vehemently protects civil rights and the right to privacy, and the sound of wooden legs echo throughout Torm after the recent introduction of the Foot Tax. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Torm's national animal is the dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Metallic Draconism.

Torm is ranked 33,688th in the world and 52nd in Ambition for Lowest Crime Rates, with 80.63 law-abiding acts per hour.
