The Confederacy of Outer Natona is a massive, orderly nation, remarkable for its strictly enforced bedtime, avowedly heterosexual populace, and avant-garde cinema. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 2.104 billion Outer Natonans 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 government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized morass — juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Education. The average income tax rate is 89.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Outer Natonan economy, worth 169 trillion euros a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Cheese Exports. Average income is 80,435 euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Shoppers have literally had their hands full since plastic bags were banned, science centers and state of the art laboratories are ubiquitous, police officers catch up on their paperwork while handing their caseload to PIs, and 4-year-olds are often found reminiscing about the 'good old days'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Outer Natona's national animal is the snail, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Outer Natona is ranked 13,303^rd in the world and 203^rd in the Rejected Realms for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 4,443.02 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
