The Counter Reformation of Oire is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Malvinas Porsiempre with an even hand, and renowned for its state-planned economy, anti-smoking policies, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, devout population of 49.254 billion Oireans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social and economic equality; they tend to view other countries as corrupted by the hollow pageantry of sham elections.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government prioritizes Spirituality, with Environment, Education, and Welfare also on the agenda, while Defense and Healthcare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ahmadinejadistan. The average income tax rate is 46.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The enormous but sluggish Oirean economy, worth a remarkable 1,008 trillion mooxes a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Tourism. 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 20,473 mooxes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Undersea volcanoes receive strongly worded letters for violating environmental regulations, exceptionally healthy police officers can sprint after crooks for hours on end, laser-wielding robots are taking aim at human hearts, and students learn how to disarm mines before understanding basic arithmetic. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent. Oire's national animal is the Leprechaun, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Popery.

Oire is ranked 394^th in the world and 1^st in Catholics for Largest Populations, with 49.3 billion capita.
