The Most Serene Republic of Ouiae is a massive, safe nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 2.328 billion Ouiaeans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 13.5%.

The strong Ouiaean economy, worth 156 trillion pesos a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 67,238 pesos, with the richest citizens earning 6.8 times as much as the poorest.

Genetic researchers have been expelled, Harry Potter books are banned, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, and the nation's diplomats shake hands with those whose hands are drenched in the blood of innocents. Crime is almost non-existent. Ouiae's national animal is the bison, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Ouiae is ranked 257,446^th in the world and 2^nd in Libertarian Lands for Largest Black Market, with 145 billion Standard Monetary Units.
