The Empire of Oskaan is a massive, orderly nation, notable for its frequent executions, compulsory military service, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 1.521 billion Oskaanians 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, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fraud City. The average income tax rate is 91.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Oskaanian economy, worth 233 trillion moneys a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Trout Farming, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 153,349 moneys, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government's new priority is citizens' access to cat videos, people seem disproportionately distraught when told a museum has a phones-off policy, burglars are known for taking cash, socks, and other valuables, and city budgets are spent entirely on supporting the town royalty. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Oskaan's national animal is the homeless, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Oskaan is ranked 11,399th in the world and 34th in the Outback for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 5,010.09 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
