The Democratic Republic of Oeiau is a gargantuan, pleasant nation, ruled by Jung with an even hand, and remarkable for its state-planned economy, ritual sacrifices, and frequent executions. The quiet, industrious population of 11.059 billion Oeiauans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Middleearthville. The average income tax rate is 32.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Oeiauan economy, worth 444 trillion pesos 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 Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Trout Farming. Average income is 40,208 pesos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Open-heart surgery is taught in seminaries, Jung has just been declared ruler of Oeiau in an international press conference, innocent defendants often plead guilty for fear of receiving a much harsher sentence before jury, and Jung spends weekends doing the laundry of foreign leaders. Crime is totally unknown. Oeiau's national animal is the tiger, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Enlightened Secularism.

Oeiau is ranked 145,590^th in the world and 2^nd in Regions for Lowest Crime Rates, with 61.39 law-abiding acts per hour.
