The Libertarian Republic of Otayo is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by qwertyuiop with a fair hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, pith helmet sales, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 7.59 billion Otayoans are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The minute, pro-business government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Okiwa. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Otayoan economy, worth a remarkable 1,399 trillion Otayoan Marks a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Gambling. Average income is an impressive 184,385 Otayoan Marks, with the richest citizens earning 6.7 times as much as the poorest.

Photographers can be found hiding behind the curtains in qwertyuiop's bedroom, the Treasury and Finance Ministry have been outsourced, stocks go up when the internet says so, and sales of disinfectant wipes have skyrocketed. Crime is a major problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Otayo's national animal is the Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Eagle Worship.

Otayo is ranked 312,222nd in the world and 2,344th in the Rejected Realms for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring -8.94 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
