The Rare Sighting of Onfande is a titanic, genial nation, ruled by Michel Vouire with an even hand, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, daily referendums, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate, hard-working population of 13.027 billion Onfandites 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Palais d'Arques. The average income tax rate is 32.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Onfandite economy, worth a remarkable 2,535 trillion Onfandite Platines a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 194,668 Onfandite Platines, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

Politicians always seem to take two steps forward then three steps back, traumatised refugees have a full bedpan shoved into their hands along with their immigration papers, sex offenders find themselves cut off from the ability to repeat their crimes, and sleeping on the job is recommended. Crime is totally unknown. Onfande's national animal is the Southern Hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Onfande is ranked 9,945^th in the world and 126^th in 10000 Islands for Nicest Citizens, with 31.57 average smiles per day.
