The Kingdom of East Oceania is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Inge Barkisson with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service, ubiquitous missile silos, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 25.876 billion Oceanians 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 minute government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Defense, although Education and Law & Order are also considered important, while Spirituality and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Asbjørn. Income tax is unheard of.
The frighteningly efficient Oceanic economy, worth a remarkable 6,989 trillion Kroner a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Information Technology. Average income is an amazing 270,102 Kroner, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Bike rage is all the rage, teens reminisce about when birthdays weren't celebrated with a cool glass of cabbage juice and a slice of corn-cream topped millet cake, private digital records now come with a convenient "download" button, and children grow up believing the sun to be a myth. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. East Oceania's national animal is the Lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
East Oceania is ranked 177,165th in the world and 183rd in Nordic Lands for Most Stationary, with 84.430154298 days.
