The Pitcher And Batter of Shotei Ohtani is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its public floggings, avant-garde cinema, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 10.752 billion Shotei Ohtanians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 58.5%.
The frighteningly efficient Shotei Ohtanian economy, worth a remarkable 1,441 trillion Platinums 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 large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. 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 134,078 Platinums, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.
Obstetricians are not allowed to publish ultrasound pictures of fetuses in medical journals, dog breeding has been banned in accordance with recent animal experimentation laws, foreign leaders are advising that Leader's letters must have gotten lost in the mail, and the military has grudgingly released all top secret information in an effort for greater transparency. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Shotei Ohtani's national animal is the Scorpion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Shotei Ohtani is ranked 50,663rd in the world and 722nd in the Rejected Realms for Most Stationary, with 888.92520886528 days.
