The United Federation of Odwyerica is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by President with a fair hand, and notable for its ban on automobiles, complete lack of prisons, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 8.267 billion Odwyericans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Portumna. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 66.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Odwyerican economy, worth a remarkable 1,052 trillion florins a year, is highly specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Retail, Book Publishing, and Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 127,327 florins, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 457,969 per year while the poor average 25,338, a ratio of 18.1 to 1.

Wait staff claim to like it when odorous customers flirt with them, there's never a spare chair in the retirement home, octogenarian swimsuit models insist that they've still got it, and nihilistic thrill-seekers claim that suicide by roller coaster is the ultimate life experience. Crime is relatively low. Odwyerica's national animal is the Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is stoicism.

Odwyerica is ranked 227,486th in the world and 265th in Commonwealth of Liberty for Most Stationary, with 26.27916373688 days.
