The Big Inning Baseball Spur of Onamata is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Stan Rogalski with an even hand, and remarkable for its ban on automobiles, complete lack of prisons, and frequent executions. The quiet, industrious population of 4.826 billion Onamatans enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Big Inning IA. The average income tax rate is 33.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Onamatan economy, worth 193 trillion runs a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Tourism. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 40,176 runs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Bris parties are all the rage, ceremonial zweihänders are used in holy rituals, the Federal Council of Onamata has been announced as the new Head of State, and the government has declined to declare any particular religion as its 'official' one. Crime is moderate, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Onamata's national animal is the angel statue, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The Church of Baseball.

Onamata is ranked 239,324^th in the world and 2^nd in Minor League Farm System for Most Advanced Law Enforcement, scoring 1,021.32 on the Orwell Orderliness Index.
