The Republic of Olitaly is a mid-sized, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its irreverence towards religion, restrictive gun laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed population of 90 million Olitalyians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 46.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Olitalyian economy, worth 2.24 trillion Oliras a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Tourism, Book Publishing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Information Technology. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 24,935 Oliras, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Cars are banned, military funding has been stripped back, the nation is completely gun-free, and children must be board certified to append "Jr" to their name. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Olitaly's national animal is the The Olive, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Olitaly is ranked 131,295^th in the world and 503^rd in Concord for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 2,385.63 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
