The Disputed Territories of Oslasa77 is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its enslaved workforce, infamous sell-swords, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.709 billion Oslasa77ians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 95.9%.
The frighteningly efficient Oslasa77ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,833 trillion Golds a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is an amazing 273,277 Golds, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 854,312 per year while the poor average 67,073, a ratio of 12.7 to 1.
All government communication requires the imprimatur of the Truth Police, government employees have reverted to carrier pigeon due to never-ending virus scans, 'The Anti-Government Hour' is a popular programme on many of Oslasa77's radio stations, and former arsonists can be found on local fire brigades. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Oslasa77's national animal is the Giraffe, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Oslasa77 is ranked 234,840th in the world and 9,177th in Balder for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring -4.5 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
