The Tribal Confederation of Ofiussa is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Sailcius with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, frequent executions, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 7.293 billion Ofis are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Industry also on the agenda, while Social Policy and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Araocelum. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 16.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Ofic economy, worth a remarkable 1,186 trillion Áyos a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Gambling. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 162,633 Áyos, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 496,057 per year while the poor average 41,355, a ratio of 12.0 to 1.

Residents of houses built on a foundation of wishful thinking are prone to an odd sinking feeling, a nickname of "Doctor Death" probably indicates a decorated war hero, serial commas clarify the relationship between one's lackeys, the taxpayers, and kinsfolk, and the newest East Lebatuckese coins have "long live East Lebatuck" on heads and "death to Ofiussa" on tails. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ofiussa's national animal is the Ofic serpent, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Ofic Paganism.

Ofiussa is ranked 141,819th in the world and 88th in Portugal for Most Stationary, with 197.2556376452 days.
