The United Socialist States of Ouro Point is a tiny, safe nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and restrictive gun laws. The democratic population of 9 million Ourians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 35.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Ouro Pointian economy, worth 394 billion Oros a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 43,866 Oros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements, the mining industry is making inroads into environmentally sensitive areas, meat-eating is frowned upon, and members of the government all have oddly similar anecdotes about their childhoods. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ouro Point's national animal is the Borgodian Rubidgea.

Ouro Point is ranked 265,849^th in the world and 944^th in Europeia for Most Influential, scoring 30 on the Soft Power Disbursement Rating.
