The Theocracy of Western Oceania is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Ralph with an even hand, and notable for its teetotalling pirates, infamous sell-swords, and vat-grown people. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 3.671 billion Oceanics are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Neptunalia. The average income tax rate is 48.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Oceanic economy, worth 707 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 192,696 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Military minds worry that 'the blue screen of death' on brand new operating systems may be a literal description, pretending to be prejudiced is a good way to get out of jury duty, welfare recipients are milking the government for all they've got, and mining is the nation's most dangerous occupation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Western Oceania's national animal is the dolphin, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways, and its national religion is Fundamentalism.

Western Oceania is ranked 6,930^th in the world and 57^th in 10000 Islands for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 99,045.97 Standard Monetary Units.
