The Borderlands of Omawewozonyanda is a very large, orderly nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 180 million Omawewozonyandans 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 large, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 48.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but inefficient Omawewozonyandan economy, worth 8.76 trillion omawe dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 48,662 omawe dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.
Lawyers spend as much time preparing their make-up as they do their briefs, surveillance cameras are banned, crime suspects are forced to submit to blood testing, and most academic research has ground to a halt. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Omawewozonyanda's national animal is the springbok, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Omawewozonyanda is ranked 136,817th in the world and 3,510th in the Rejected Realms for Most Rebellious Youth, scoring -1 on the Stark-Dean Displacement Index.
