The Woodland Tribes of Alticors Pordes is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Lenny with an even hand, and remarkable for its national health service, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and daily referendums. The compassionate population of 8.773 billion Pordesians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of South Woodland Fox City. The average income tax rate is 85.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Pordesian economy, worth 721 trillion altis a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Book Publishing. Average income is 82,261 altis, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government is promoting multicultural values with the new 'Just Be Nice, OK?' initiative, molehills are the only mountains deemed safe enough for the public, universities spend millions cultivating ivy on their buildings, and the dish 'poisson avec poison' is only available on the black market. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Alticors Pordes's national animal is the woodland fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Foxism.

Alticors Pordes is ranked 28,858^th in the world and 1^st in Woodland Creatures for Highest Poor Incomes, with 76,758.97 Standard Monetary Units.
