The Republic of Oslasa62 is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, zero percent divorce rate, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 7.629 billion Oslasa62ians 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 medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Education. The average income tax rate is 84.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Oslasa62ian economy, worth a remarkable 2,266 trillion kronor a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 297,029 kronor, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.
Supervisors in Oslasa62 commonly tie bells on their necks to alert employees of their presence, Oslasa62ian politicians are often described as having more style than substance, former nobles are being issued new identities in the wake of the end of serfdom, and heavily-laden pregnant women are told they can manage. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Oslasa62's national animal is the crocodile, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.
Oslasa62 is ranked 284,416th in the world and 10,932nd in Lazarus for Most Beautiful Environments, with 4.36 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
