The Rogue Nation of Oddkast is a very large, cultured nation, renowned for its fear of technology, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 274 million Oddkastians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The minute, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Defense, although Industry, Education, and Public Transport are also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality receive no funds. The average income tax rate is 5.5%.

The powerhouse Oddkastian economy, worth 19.1 trillion Dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Pizza Delivery, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 69,735 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.5 times as much as the poorest.

Owning a tractor is widely regarded as an essential prerequisite to most government positions, people are bored of easy crossword puzzles, vehicular manslaughter is apparently a victimless crime, and signs saying "No Poor People or Weirdoes" are common outside shops and cafés. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Oddkast's national animal is the Turtlecatt, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Oddkast is ranked 105,262^nd in the world and 2^nd in Indy for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 3,170.35 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
