The Republic of Oslasa53 is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, ritual sacrifices, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 7.699 billion Oslasa53ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 76.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Oslasa53ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,867 trillion bitcoins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 242,499 bitcoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Prospective secessionists nervously declare how worthless and unimportant they are, elections have become procedural nightmares due to voters persistently rejecting candidates, a weakened police force struggles to maintain law and order, and women no longer need to pepper conversations with incessant references to fictitious husbands. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Oslasa53's national animal is the kangaroo, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Oslasa53 is ranked 283,264th in the world and 10,795th in Balder for Safest, scoring 4.42 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
