The State of Ocanom is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by John O'Kennom with an even hand, and notable for its parental licensing program, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, hard-working, devout population of 1.342 billion Ocanomese 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 medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Okenom. The average income tax rate is 31.1%.

The all-consuming Ocanomese economy, worth 128 trillion klemms a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 95,946 klemms, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.

Pareidolic SETI scientists swear there's a message from aliens hidden within pi, goldfish bowls are three metres in diameter, nudity is frowned upon, and city-slickers are jelly of all the farmland the government is giving away. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ocanom's national animal is the gurt, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Okan'oòm Faith.

Ocanom is ranked 74,219^th in the world and 3,755^th in Balder for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 14,754.27 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
