The People's Republic of Owans is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Dr Moran with an even hand, and renowned for its national health service, irreverence towards religion, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, humorless population of 10.822 billion Owens enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
The medium-sized, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, with Administration, Healthcare, and Industry also on the agenda, while Defense and Spirituality aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Owen. The average income tax rate is 69.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Owansian economy, worth a remarkable 1,967 trillion OZZES a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Cheese Exports. Average income is an impressive 181,805 OZZES, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Factories place endangered birds in their rafters in pursuit of government protections, foreign 'investors' have been taking a great interest in the new secret shuttle, the nation's ambassadors often conduct their business in jail cells, and cheese lovers have a case of the bleus. Crime is totally unknown. Owans's national animal is the chicken, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Owans is ranked 233,693rd in the world and 6,968th in Osiris for Most Stationary, with 23.3278670146 days.
