The Republic of Oulusis is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by mateus of the clan oskari with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, parental licensing program, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 1.465 billion Oulusisians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed, including voting. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 22.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Oulusisian economy, worth 115 trillion Euros a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Information Technology, and Tourism. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 78,956 Euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Airplane passengers who purchase "basic economy" tickets are often assigned seats in the lavatory, the dartboard at the Oulusisian Cancer Research Charity bears a picture of mateus of the clan oskari's face, a major religion has been named as Oulusis's national religion, and more sidewalk is dedicated to animals than people. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control. Oulusis's national animal is the Dog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Oulusis is ranked 30,853^rd in the world and 2^nd in Oulusian union for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 4,527.3 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
