The Expanding Desert of Agelast is a titanic, orderly nation, notable for its complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 15.275 billion Osirans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The relatively small, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 11.1%.

The strong Osiran economy, worth 779 trillion scarabs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Soda Sales, and Retail. Average income is 51,055 scarabs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.4 times as much as the poorest.

Military spending recently hit a new high, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, Harry Potter books are banned, and glamping Osirans won't sleep in a tent that doesn't include a Jacuzzi. Crime is a problem. Agelast's national animal is the scarab.

Agelast is ranked 178,216^th in the world and 106^th in Darkest Skies for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 395.29 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
