The Republic of Panem of Enchanted Oasis is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by President Illari Hawthorn with a fair hand, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and compulsory military service. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 16.643 billion Oasians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Oasis City. The average income tax rate is 88.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Oasian economy, worth a remarkable 1,359 trillion Panemian Dollars 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 Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is 81,708 Panemian Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The combined alert sound of a nation simultaneously receiving a text message is a common cause of hearing damage, the dessert 'Death by Chocolate' isn't the most lethal dish on the menu, write-in candidate 'President Illari Hawthorn Sucks' is perennially popular, and the Messiah (formerly known as Brian) is a mayoral candidate. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Enchanted Oasis's national animal is the Great Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Secularism.

Enchanted Oasis is ranked 40,806^th in the world and 1^st in Republic of Hiraeth for Lowest Crime Rates, with 77.51 law-abiding acts per hour.
