The Democratic Republic of Ocharlicum is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Noustous with a fair hand, and remarkable for its ban on automobiles, lack of airports, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 14.604 billion Ocharlians 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 enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Moruchilca. The average income tax rate is 85.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Ocharlicumian economy, worth a remarkable 1,086 trillion Charlis a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Cheese Exports, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 74,404 Charlis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The new national campaign exhorts men to "Show Some Class - Don't Sit On Your Ass", confessions don't count if suffixed with "izzle", the government's giant servers are often used as a tourist trap, and tourists visit Ocharlicum to mass-moon Ocharlicumian politicians. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ocharlicum's national animal is the Dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Z.

Ocharlicum is ranked 123,996^th in the world and 1^st in Caelum for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring 2,419.77 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
