The Empire of Otavilandia is a huge, genial nation, renowned for its compulsory military service and stringent health and safety legislation. The devout population of 511 million Otavilandians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Defense, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Otatropolis. The average income tax rate is 9.6%.

The Otavilandian economy, worth 29.4 trillion biticoins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Pizza Delivery, and Soda Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 57,482 biticoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Prankster scientists legally change their names to silly pseudonyms before major discoveries, truncheon-mounted cameras record the beating of criminals in dynamic HD detail, police are arresting costumed characters at comic book conventions, and citizens often pray for divine guidance in supermarkets. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control. Otavilandia's national animal is the calopsita.
