The Free Land of Ohtani-san is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical population of 516 million Ohtani-sanians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 42.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Ohtani-sanian economy, worth 21.3 trillion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Information Technology, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 41,337 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

A large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, kids are arrested at gunpoint for playing with toy rifles, and Harry Potter books are banned. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ohtani-san's national animal is the koi, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ohtani-san is ranked 115,965th in the world and 516th in the Outback for Highest Poor Incomes, with 27,393.91 Standard Monetary Units.
