The Confederacy of OkeraSowa is a huge, cultured nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, absence of drug laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 236 million OkeraSowans enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The tiny, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 8.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The OkeraSowan economy, worth 14.5 trillion Uwnis a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 61,365 Uwnis, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

The recital of citations that follows any political speech can be longer than the speech itself, blind dates tend to result in bruised shins, one does not simply walk into the tundra, and every street in the nation contains at least three law firms. Crime is almost non-existent. OkeraSowa's national animal is the Red-tailed Hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

OkeraSowa is ranked 102,575^th in the world and 2,800^th in The North Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 84.26 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
