The Democratic Principality of Oczyan is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Tu Ra with an even hand, and renowned for its ban on automobiles, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed population of 21.023 billion Oczyanians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Public Transport, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Oczyana. The average income tax rate is 51.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but sluggish Oczyanian economy, worth 357 trillion Euros a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Retail. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 16,995 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Teenagers are told they're not thinking about sex enough, the decision to be oppressed is now made democratically, interest in globalism never flags, and the Supreme Court vehemently protects civil rights and the right to privacy. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Oczyan's national animal is the cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Raism.

Oczyan is ranked 273,377^th in the world and 3^rd in Democrats for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 8,259.73 Standard Monetary Units.
