The Silver Circle of Inner Owt is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Prince Kip with a fair hand, and remarkable for its irreverence towards religion, punitive income tax rates, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 22.529 billion Inner Owtians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Roundabout. The average income tax rate is 54.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Inner Owtian economy, worth a remarkable 1,548 trillion yips a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 68,733 yips, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Celebrity wrestlers thumb their nose at due process, vacationing hippies and old ladies are regularly arrested for bringing back contraband basketry, there's more hugging than talking in most talk shows, and knitters are arrested for carrying needles in their bags. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Inner Owt's national animal is the eel, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Inner Owt is ranked 80,993^rd in the world and 3^rd in Redundant Realm of Redundancy for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 118.46 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
