The Empire of Osymaka is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Nicholas with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, free-roaming dinosaurs, and soft-spoken computers. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 3.6 billion Osymakans enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Edokyo. The average income tax rate is 47.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Osymakan economy, worth 405 trillion Francish-Yens a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 112,515 Francish-Yens, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Many friends and relatives of Nicholas have been given ambassador jobs in tropical island nations, disaster relief budgets are growing like wildfire, no one believes anything until it has been strenuously tested and peer-reviewed, and soup kitchens are the only things doing roaring business. Crime is totally unknown. Osymaka's national animal is the Panda, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Esmier.

Osymaka is ranked 28,144^th in the world and 919^th in the South Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 5,621.08 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
