The Federal Republic of Great Occitanie is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its digital currency, smutty television, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed population of 222 million Great Occitanieans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 46.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Great Occitaniean economy, worth 14.8 trillion Occitan Francs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 66,741 Occitan Francs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Immigrants are required to salute the flag five times a day, a child's only Trickster Night scare is the sight of their parents dancing, childhood friends of Leader are living it large abroad at the taxpayers' expense, and telling someone to 'break a leg' is considered a criminal inducement to self harm. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Great Occitanie's national animal is the Eagle.

Great Occitanie is ranked 46,942^nd in the world and 542^nd in the West Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 156.05 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
