The Power-Crazed Rules Lawyer of Bormiar is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Bormiar with an even hand, and notable for its smutty television, digital currency, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working population of 6.279 billion citizens 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, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Delegateorgitopia. The average income tax rate is 70.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Bormiar economy, worth 717 trillion rubledollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Tourism, Information Technology, Retail, and Basket Weaving. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 114,329 rubledollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

The government is pouring billions into replacement brains, rumor has it that Bormiar has won three lotteries in a row, freed serfs and former nobles exchange awkward glances in the produce aisle, and political gridlock ensues as even the most innocuous legislation is vetoed by the Supreme Court for potential civil rights violations. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bormiar's national animal is the hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Kyorgism.

Bormiar is ranked 204,469th in the world and 4,750th in The North Pacific for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 49.5 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
