The Reformed Federation of Ouidland is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by President Canna Bacchus with an even hand, and remarkable for its national health service, rampant corporate plagiarism, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, devout population of 6.807 billion Ouidfolk 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 enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pleiadia. The average income tax rate is 79.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ouidlandish economy, worth 727 trillion Hellnotes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 106,853 Hellnotes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Netizens fiercely argue over who loves President Canna Bacchus more, a new guerrilla marketing campaign for tap water involves government agents spraying random citizens with hose water, enemy navies sail within bombardment range of major coastal cities with impunity, and bad punctuation has come to a full stop. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ouidland's national animal is the Peacock, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Church of the Celestial Path.

Ouidland is ranked 233,386th in the world and 1,148th in Europe for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring -2 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
