The Eastern Kingdom of Othenhiem is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Mutroskovich IX with an even hand, and notable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, anti-smoking policies, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cheerful population of 7.947 billion Othenthemian are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stratvo M'Kai. The average income tax rate is 97.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Othenthemian economy, worth a remarkable 1,308 trillion Dourviks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 164,691 Dourviks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Confessions don't count if suffixed with "izzle", political talk shows often have children as guests whenever they need commentary on world religions, it's a hard-knock life for the orphans doing factory work for a pittance, and bowls of milk left on windowsills please fairies and passing cats alike. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Othenhiem's national animal is the Dark Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Othenthemic-Reformed Orthodoxy.

Othenhiem is ranked 3,624^th in the world and 75^th in Europe for Highest Food Quality, scoring 231.1 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
