The Hundred Oaker Forest of Oaks 10 is a colossal, orderly nation, notable for its anti-smoking policies, enslaved workforce, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 9.491 billion Oaks 10ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 16.9%.
The powerhouse Oaks 10ian economy, worth 883 trillion planets a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Gambling, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 93,045 planets, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.
The government considers it a sacred duty to video bikini-clad beach swimmers, Jennifer Government is banned, nudity is frowned upon, and massive new slaughterhouses are being hailed as a sign of progress. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Oaks 10's national animal is the falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Oaks 10 is ranked 265,605th in the world and 5th in world military for Largest Timber Woodchipping Industry, scoring -8.6 on the Tasmanian Pulp Environmental Export Index.
