The Libertarian Republic of Otayo is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by qwertyuiop with a fair hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 7.79 billion Otayoans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Okiwa. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 2.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Otayoan economy, worth a remarkable 1,451 trillion Otayoan Marks a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Gambling. Average income is an impressive 186,300 Otayoan Marks, with the richest citizens earning 6.0 times as much as the poorest.

The latest Orange tablet's new peeling surface keeps the device always fresh, students memorise knock-knock jokes for their mandatory twice-a-term Comedy Examinations, the nation has declared war on all passing comets, and belligerent citizens shoot at passing clouds for 'violating their airspace'. Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Otayo's national animal is the Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Eagle Worship.

Otayo is ranked 304,161^st in the world and 2,164^th in the Rejected Realms for Nicest Citizens, with 0.37 average smiles per day.
