The Most Serene Republic of Oursulaert is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, sprawling nuclear power plants, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate population of 1.748 billion Oursulaertians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cecil City. The average income tax rate is 74.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Oursulaertian economy, worth 89.5 trillion francs a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Furniture Restoration, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 51,185 francs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A common response to government PSAs is "well, DUH, obviously", every microwave and toaster is being disassembled and probed by inspectors, the nation's forests are full of treasure hunters in military-grade survival gear, and it is rumoured that Leader uses a magic 8-ball to make policy decisions. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Oursulaert's national animal is the orange tabby cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Oursulaert is ranked 85,565^th in the world and 137^th in The Region That Has No Big Banks for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 1,952.27 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
