The Rarely Active People of Oisam is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Aleksei Volkov with an iron fist, and renowned for its lack of airports, keen interest in outer space, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, cynical population of 4.138 billion Oisamians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Khrabrostigrad. The average income tax rate is 74.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Oisamian economy, worth 374 trillion Florins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Tourism, Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Arms Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 90,610 Florins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The property market is in a bit of a state, billions of Florins are being blown on orbital weapons development, kids' party bags often contain candy and e-cigarettes, and former public radio talk pundits are being deployed to front line war zones. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Oisam's national animal is the Oisamian Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Orthodox Christianity.

Oisam is ranked 25,667th in the world and 31st in The Kodiak Republic for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 6,225.39 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
