The Game of 0xO is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Ox O with an even hand, and renowned for its ritual sacrifices, suspicion of poets, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed population of 25.55 billion Oxoes have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of OXO. The average income tax rate is 48.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong 0xOian economy, worth a remarkable 1,684 trillion Oxoes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Tourism, Pizza Delivery, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Automobile Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 65,923 Oxoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Back-alley circumcision clinics are popping up all over the nation, new religious sects are squashed immediately by the government, dog breeding has been banned in accordance with recent animal experimentation laws, and army uniforms are replaced en masse to accommodate adult soldiers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. 0xO's national animal is the ox, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Oxo-ism.

0xO is ranked 57,873rd in the world and 17th in Vlaanderen for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 3,894.73 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
