The Colony of Oneiroi 9 is a massive, genial nation, renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, prohibition of alcohol, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 2.709 billion Oneiroi 9ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.
The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 68.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The large but inefficient Oneiroi 9ian economy, worth 106 trillion thoughts a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Basket Weaving, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 39,415 thoughts, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.
Seven-year-olds debate for weeks on the merits of the Oxford comma, the government has declared "all your rigs are belong to us", all children's clothes come in only cream and off-white to prevent offense, and liberals and conservatives try to disqualify each other's candidates on the grounds that "their ideas would never work in the real world". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Oneiroi 9's national animal is the dreamer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Oneiroi 9 is ranked 176,643rd in the world and 2,197th in Suspicious for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 1,415.92 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
