The Dictatorship of Osatana is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Taoiseach Colm Kilduff with an iron fist, and remarkable for its state-planned economy, restrictive gun laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 5.459 billion Osatanians 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 enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lisryan. The average income tax rate is 69.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Osatanan economy, worth 187 trillion Pounds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Furniture Restoration, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 34,347 Pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The local custom of Biking With The Cars sends tourists home bemused or in body-bags, immigrant herding has become a national pastime, crime suspects are forced to submit to blood testing, and the jackhammer is considered a tool of artistic criticism. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Osatana's national animal is the Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

Osatana is ranked 81,335th in the world and 19th in Teremara for Largest Populations, with 5.46 billion capita.
