The Republic of Oshen is a massive, efficient nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion, complete absence of social welfare, and exploding hoverboards. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 3.465 billion Oshenians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The minute, corrupt, pro-business government, or what there is of one, is effectively ruled by the Department of Industry, with Defense and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Law & Order and Administration receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ciliren. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Oshenian economy, worth 389 trillion Osheian Dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and dominated by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Soda Sales, Retail, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is an impressive 112,523 Osheian Dollars, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,012,532 per year while the poor average 1,557, a ratio of 650 to 1.

Oshen has become a gigantic dustbowl filled with tourists and mean desperados, it's a marvellous night for a moon dance as the sparks on your home start to rise, it's all quiet on the western front, and citizens have to dodge their neighbors' drones while getting the morning paper. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Oshen's national animal is the whale, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Oshen is ranked 250,088^th in the world and 3,036^th in the Pacific for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 49.01 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
