The Republic of Oothiteria is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Anna Voss with a fair hand, and notable for its punitive income tax rates, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 5.567 billion Oothiterians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Valkhoven. The average income tax rate is 77.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Oothiterian economy, worth 417 trillion Guilders a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 75,050 Guilders, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There is one competing standard, the mining industry has taken a hit from tighter environmental regulations, urban entrepreneurs are busy introducing cockroaches into restaurant kitchens, and a degree in Anna Voss Science with a Minor in Awesomeology starts many political careers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Oothiteria's national animal is the Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Aeralism.

Oothiteria is ranked 264,680^th in the world and 1,839^th in The East Pacific for Largest Black Market, with 115 billion Standard Monetary Units.
