The Republic of Oslasa14 is a colossal, orderly nation, notable for its infamous sell-swords, daily referendums, and avant-garde cinema. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 7.539 billion Oslasa14ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 71.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Oslasa14ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,785 trillion kronor a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Furniture Restoration. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 236,841 kronor, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.
Phone taps are frequently carried out by the police, military minds worry that 'the blue screen of death' on brand new operating systems may be a literal description, Oslasa14 is increasingly belligerent on the international stage, and access to the woods is only granted to those who bring a small shrubbery. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Oslasa14's national animal is the kangaroo, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Oslasa14 is ranked 115,511th in the world and 2,059th in Lazarus for Most Stationary, with 328.74667849088 days.
