The Republic of Oceanic people is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by John Wohlwend with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service, keen interest in outer space, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 31.204 billion Oceanic peopleans 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, is primarily concerned with Environment, with Education and Defense also on the agenda, while Welfare and Social Policy aren't funded at all. The average income tax rate is 1.0%.

The enormous but inefficient Oceanic peoplean economy, worth a remarkable 2,597 trillion dollars a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 83,249 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

The nation's air missiles have killed thousands of Brasilistan military personnel, political visitors are forced to stop ten paces from John Wohlwend's throne, elite teams of assassins have been sent into Brasilistan, and soldiers on first dates introduce themselves only by their ranks and serial numbers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Oceanic people's national animal is the albatross, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Oceanic people is ranked 121,430th in the world and 2,142nd in The East Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 1,595.29 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
