The People's Republic of Owans is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Dr Moran with an even hand, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, museums and concert halls, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, humorless population of 10.925 billion Owens enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
The medium-sized, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, although Administration, Healthcare, and Industry are also considered important, while Defense and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Owen. The average income tax rate is 70.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Owansian economy, worth a remarkable 1,983 trillion OZZES a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Cheese Exports. Average income is an impressive 181,546 OZZES, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Foreign 'investors' have been taking a great interest in the new secret shuttle, the nation's ambassadors often conduct their business in jail cells, cheese lovers have a case of the bleus, and visiting dignitaries often end up cuddling in the hot tub with Dr Moran. Crime is totally unknown. Owans's national animal is the chicken, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Owans is ranked 50,019th in the world and 2,989th in Osiris for Lowest Crime Rates, with 74.17 law-abiding acts per hour.
