The County of Owodar is a huge, orderly nation, remarkable for its ritual sacrifices, compulsory military service, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 937 million Owodarians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 69.2%.

The very strong Owodarian economy, worth 71.9 trillion Orginan Chervonets a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Pizza Delivery, and Cheese Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 76,740 Orginan Chervonets, with the richest citizens earning 6.9 times as much as the poorest.

Baize on snooker tables has been stripped for "appearing too hedonistic", citizens sport solarium-kissed tans that are perfectly even except for the occasional melanoma, the secret ingredient is love (and MSG), and the blood on the hands of Leader may not be metaphorical. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Owodar's national animal is the Shoked square toad, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Owodar is ranked 299,151st in the world and 7th in Bepis for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 29.05 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
