The Jingoistic States of Exortilia is a massive, safe nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, anti-smoking policies, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 2.175 billion Exortilians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 22.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Exortilian economy, worth 235 trillion Euros a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 108,164 Euros, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 897,788 per year while the poor average 2,618, a ratio of 342 to 1.

The police use sound cannons and mortars to deal with loud parties, Rupert Bear is considered to be the most risqué TV programme in Exortilia, Exortilia's army is full of two-metre tall super-soldiers, and truancy officers have a hard time catching children trained in advanced camouflage skills. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Exortilia's national animal is the Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Exortilia is ranked 305,236^th in the world and 4,664^th in The East Pacific for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 42.61 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
