The Kingdom of Osarius is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 38.105 billion Osarians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal government is primarily concerned with Education, with Healthcare, Environment, and Social Policy also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Defense receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Burningham. The average income tax rate is 53.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The enormous but inefficient Osarian economy, worth a remarkable 2,567 trillion Osarian Credits a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Gambling. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 67,389 Osarian Credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Old dogs don't have to learn new tricks but they have to prove they haven't forgotten old ones, supermarket milk is a shear-thickening fluid that can stop small-caliber bullets, posters on 'Osarian Values' advise against being proud of Osarius, and pharmaceutical companies emphatically promise that "your pills are in the mail" rather than admit any supply shortfall. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, probably because of the absence of a police force. Osarius's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is something people don't worry about.

Osarius is ranked 277,094^th in the world and 65^th in Anaia for Most Primitive, scoring -303.13 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
