The Federation of Oceia is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Rayold Gunther with a fair hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, ubiquitous missile silos, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.55 billion Oceians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Oceia City. The average income tax rate is 40.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Oceian economy, worth 254 trillion Antarctic Marks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Cheese Exports, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 71,625 Antarctic Marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Bike rage is all the rage, families waiting for delayed pipe installations hope daily for rain, students are known to arrive at school in their pyjamas, and the military maintains a fierce arsenal of 'Cure Missiles'. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Oceia's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Oceia is ranked 41,962^nd in the world and 18^th in Antarctica for Most Cultured, scoring 74 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
