The Queer Workers' Commune of Osito Libre is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by the Vanguard with an even hand, and renowned for its digital currency, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 16.079 billion Ositoes enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, liberal, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Otterton. The average income tax rate is 98.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Osito Librean economy, worth a remarkable 2,103 trillion cublets a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 130,849 cublets, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Aeroplanes have been converted into housing units after all air travel was outlawed, janitors and factory workers are often better educated than the bosses they work for, the Osito Librean Babysitters Club has proven to be a huge relief to stressed-out parents across the nation, and criminals and college students are taking an interest in the government's new weed-killing program. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Osito Libre's national animal is the bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Automated Luxury Gay Space Communism.

Osito Libre is ranked 5,637^th in the world and 84^th in 10000 Islands for Lowest Crime Rates, with 113.57 law-abiding acts per hour.
