The Federal Republic of Oresteia is a very large, safe nation, remarkable for its irreverence towards religion and hatred of cheese. The compassionate, democratic population of 353 million Oresteians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 45.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Oresteian economy, worth 11.5 trillion Krs a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Pizza Delivery. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 32,461 Krs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Polygraphs are relegated to the dungeon exhibit in castle museums, conversion therapy coupons are a popular present for coming of age ceremonies, the fire brigade often deal with cases of burnt toast, and re-education centers are being added to most prisons. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Oresteia's national animal is the Tiger.

Oresteia is ranked 275,785^th in the world and 3,520^th in the South Pacific for Most Developed, scoring 50.15 on the Human Development Index.
