The Rogue Nation of Octury is a mid-sized, orderly nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 79 million Octuryians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 32.0%.

The very strong Octuryian economy, worth 3.92 trillion Pounds a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Pizza Delivery. Average income is 49,564 Pounds, with the richest citizens earning 8.9 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements, Harry Potter books are banned, military spending recently hit a new high, and frat-house partying has become the national pastime. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Octury's national animal is the Jackrabbit.

Octury is ranked 211,714^th in the world and 6^th in Septent for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 50 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
