The Holy Empire of Ostann Hath and Seranalase is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Empress Elizabeth II with an iron fist, and remarkable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, absence of drug laws, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical population of 9.797 billion Seranalaseans 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 enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Victoria. The average income tax rate is 93.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ostann Hath and Seranalasean economy, worth a remarkable 1,197 trillion florins 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 Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 122,235 florins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Almost all of the nation's water is piped into the country from abroad for exorbitant prices, dog owners proudly declare that their pups can predict when the mailman will arrive, parking's carefree without parking car fees, and both criminals and civilians are DOA. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ostann Hath and Seranalase's national animal is the swan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.

Ostann Hath and Seranalase is ranked 195,591st in the world and 4,658th in Osiris for Most Stationary, with 53.32810475888 days.
