The Cinderella Grey Story of Oguri is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Oguri-San with an even hand, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, unlimited-speed roads, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-working population of 1.257 billion Ogurians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The South Pacific Cafeteria. The average income tax rate is 19.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Ogurian economy, worth 109 trillion Noodles a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Automobile Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 86,900 Noodles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Exam halls are littered with used needles and empty pill bottles, the weather in The South Pacific Cafeteria is always 'pigeons with a chance of droppings', Oguri-San's new door-knocking campaign has the sweet taste of success, and fixing attendance at women's matches is a matter of "when they go low, we go high... funding". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Oguri's national animal is the Cap, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Oguri is ranked 134,185^th in the world and 1,958^th in the South Pacific for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring 1,178.26 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
