The Republic of Oakenspine is a colossal, safe nation, renowned for its daily referendums, punitive income tax rates, and restrictive gun laws. The cynical population of 8.21 billion Oakenspineans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Education. The average income tax rate is 51.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Oakenspinean economy, worth 47.9 trillion pesos 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 slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Woodchip Exports, Cheese Exports, and Pizza Delivery. 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 5,829 pesos, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

CSI Forest is this year's hit new crime show, flatulent people are left to die of cancer at the end of hospital waiting lists, a referendum must be held in order for any new law to be passed, and a major religion has been named as Oakenspine's national religion. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Oakenspine's national animal is the wolf.

Oakenspine is ranked 29,013th in the world and 2nd in A North Pacific for Most Stationary, with 1,382.52472629472 days.
