The Federal Republic of Originia is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Chancellor with a fair hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, daily referendums, and pith helmet sales. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.442 billion Originese love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Honiara. The average income tax rate is 35.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Origini economy, worth 266 trillion Cassoes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 109,207 Cassoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

People believe that if you teach a man to fish he won't buy fish from you any more, police officers often head to work wearing onesies and fluffy pink bunny-slippers, the wealthiest parts of the country receive the most government spending, and city budgets are spent entirely on supporting the town royalty. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Originia's national animal is the Cassowary, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Originia is ranked 96,897^th in the world and 1,802^nd in the South Pacific for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 2,647.12 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
