The Socialdemocracy of Osma del sur is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Marsha Curie with a fair hand, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, compulsory vegetarianism, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.871 billion Osmenienses love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Calíope. The average income tax rate is 98.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Osma del surian economy, worth 769 trillion Crowns a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 198,770 Crowns, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Abortions are routinely performed in the nation's hospitals, skateparks can be found in every city, nobody looks each other in the eye at neighborhood block parties any more, and the phrase 'spreading like wildfire' is no longer in the public lexicon. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Osma del sur's national animal is the Owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Osma del sur is ranked 205,381^st in the world and 122^nd in New West Indies for Largest Mining Sector, scoring -23.58 on the Blue Sky Asbestos Index.
