The Third Union of Devoka is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Zobrat Alexyanderliak Sir'Dominicskyaiok with a fair hand, and notable for its fear of technology, ubiquitous missile silos, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 5.952 billion Devokians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Decronis Centris Olaio. The average income tax rate is 65.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Devokain economy, worth 215 trillion Kiowas a year, is quite specialized and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Trout Farming. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 36,129 Kiowas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation is illegal, radio shows frequently feature people denouncing religion, vital infrastructure development is on hold because of 'nature and stuff', and being able to unblock a u-bend pipe is considered a universally essential skill. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Devoka's national animal is the Coyote, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Protestant Mannosim.

Devoka is ranked 124,066th in the world and 5,313th in Osiris for Largest Populations, with 5.95 billion capita.
