The State of Ourmiston is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by the Governor with a fair hand, and notable for its irreverence towards religion, complete lack of public education, and absence of drug laws. The hard-working, democratic population of 39.077 billion Ourmistonians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.
The minute, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is effectively ruled by the Department of Industry, although Spirituality is also considered important, while Law & Order and Social Policy are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Westminster. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.6%.
The powerhouse Ourmistonian economy, worth a remarkable 2,331 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Trout Farming, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 59,652 betales, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 270,099 per year while the poor average 8,087, a ratio of 33.4 to 1.
Ourmiston has designated Westminster as its capital city, The Governor has just been declared ruler of Ourmiston in an international press conference, genetic research is temporarily tied up in government red tape, and being dead no longer has any benefits. Crime, especially youth-related, is a major problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Ourmiston's national animal is the deer.
Ourmiston is ranked 130,146th in the world and 190th in Ancient Lands for Most Cultured, scoring 64 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
