The Republic of Odiand is a massive, cultured nation, renowned for its zero percent divorce rate, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical, humorless population of 2.291 billion Odiandians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Newburg. The average income tax rate is 77.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Odiandian economy, worth 293 trillion libroes 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 Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Uranium Mining, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 128,240 libroes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Signatures have been replaced with illegible scribbles, Leader's used car is held together by bumper stickers that support the opposition, the cruise missile launchers on the field hospital roof are purely deterrent in purpose, and children dream of becoming physicians and physicists. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Odiand's national animal is the Hummingbird, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Odiand is ranked 24,060th in the world and 204th in Europeia for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 3,004.88 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
