The Dictatorship of Oca is a very large, orderly nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and restrictive gun laws. The cynical population of 317 million Ocans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 30.9%.

The very strong Ocan economy, worth 23.3 trillion Açors a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Automobile Manufacturing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 73,533 Açors, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

Laser-wielding robots are taking aim at human hearts, Scrabble champions have been left scrambling for scraps, public transit is widely considered to be perpetrating the patriarchy, and imitation is the sincerest form of felony. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Oca's national animal is the Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Oca is ranked 211,207th in the world and 29th in Ridgefield for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -2.32 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
