The Republic of Ora Ora is a tiny, safe nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical, devout population of 18 million Ora Orans 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 enormous, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Defense, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 71.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The basket case Ora Oran economy, worth 118 billion pounds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Tourism. Average income is 6,567 pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ora Ora's national animal is the panther, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ora Ora is ranked 329,704th in the world and 805th in Horizon for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 1,884.87 Standard Monetary Units.
