The État Populaire of Oncadia is a titanic, genial nation, ruled by Arnaud Gagneux with a fair hand, and remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 11.245 billion Oncadiens hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Montais. The average income tax rate is 62.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Oncadian economy, worth 926 trillion Onglois a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 82,359 Onglois, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Oncadiens believe manners maketh the leader, running away is an essential part of the elite forces' hand-to-hand training, the nation's arms dealers guarantee discretion and untraceable transactions, and discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation is illegal. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Oncadia's national animal is the Arvern Forest Owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Oncadien Oremianism.

Oncadia is ranked 282,054^th in the world and 11^th in Coldonia for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring -8.68 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
