The Republic of Owion 97 is a small, efficient nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, zero percent divorce rate, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 36 million Owion 97ians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The relatively small, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 12.3%.

The very strong Owion 97ian economy, worth 1.75 trillion rubles a year, is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 48,710 rubles, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 218,889 per year while the poor average 6,694, a ratio of 32.7 to 1.

Divorce is illegal, the nation is infamous for its mass graves of discarded robots, the government is pouring money into 'Operation Enduring Democracy', and the government officially wants you to slow down and speak more clearly. Crime is moderate. Owion 97's national animal is the cow, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Owion 97 is ranked 277,073rd in the world and 94th in Owion for Highest Poor Incomes, with 6,694.64 Standard Monetary Units.
