The People's Republic of Osaydan is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Tovozyol Kadged with an iron fist, and renowned for its fear of technology, state-planned economy, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 1.105 billion Osaydanians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Basakite. The average income tax rate is 72.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Osaydanian economy, worth 101 trillion Hateks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Arms Manufacturing, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 91,415 Hateks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Children high on sugar can often be seen bouncing off walls, adults have never outgrown their fear of monsters, a child's only Trickster Night scare is the sight of their parents dancing, and the police have been known to wiretap confessional boxes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Osaydan's national animal is the bison, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Osaydan is ranked 213,962^nd in the world and 35^th in Lewisham Library for Most Cultured, scoring 64 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
