The Republic of Oreusa is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by President Nexon with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, strictly enforced bedtime, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 10.648 billion Oreusans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Saint Lorraine. The average income tax rate is 16.3%.
The frighteningly efficient Oreusan economy, worth a remarkable 1,036 trillion Oreusan Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Automobile Manufacturing, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 97,348 Oreusan Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.7 times as much as the poorest.
It is mandatory to learn evolution in schools, many of the unemployed have had the fight taken out of them, landless farmers wander forlornly in the government's many national parks, and social networking sites have discussion groups devoted to planning terrorist attacks. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Oreusa's national animal is the Luea Raven, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Secularism.
Oreusa is ranked 105,884th in the world and 49th in Barbaria for Lowest Crime Rates, with 65.18 law-abiding acts per hour.
