The Republic of Okaton is a massive, safe nation, renowned for its restrictive gun laws. The quiet, industrious population of 2.032 billion Okatonians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.
The large, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 42.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but underdeveloped Okatonian economy, worth 49.1 trillion rubledollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Book Publishing, and Retail. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 24,139 rubledollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Okaton's national animal is the hawk.
Okaton is ranked 161,913th in the world and 3,454th in Suspicious for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 464.23 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
