The United Kingdom of The Odyssyian Islands is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Lord Sturm the Unbearing with an iron fist, and renowned for its compulsory military service, complete lack of prisons, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.38 billion Odyssyians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Panau. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 62.4%.
The frighteningly efficient Odyssyian Islandsian economy, worth a remarkable 1,251 trillion Plutoniums a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 232,563 Plutoniums, with the richest citizens earning 5.5 times as much as the poorest.
Expats return home to a government devoid of social and environmental agencies, a 10000 Islands Tourist Association survey has rated The Odyssyian Islands #1 for number twos, mandatory neutering has made purebred dogs a thing of the past, and the elderly live on a steady diet of canned beans in dreary government housing. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Odyssyian Islands's national animal is the Parched Wendigo, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Los Illuminados.
The Odyssyian Islands is ranked 1,478th in the world and 15th in 10000 Islands for Most Patriotic, with 107.52 flags saluted per person per day.
