The ProcrastiNation of Oofery is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Rick Astley with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and national health service. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 9.435 billion Ooferians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lazytown. The average income tax rate is 98.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Ooferian economy, worth a remarkable 1,492 trillion dead memes a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 158,139 dead memes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

News headlines usually include p-values, an underground group of geologists hides new discoveries to protect them from being destroyed in the name of safety, the government has an entire department dedicated to staring at microscopes and writing down letters, and politicians always seem to take two steps forward then three steps back. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Oofery's national animal is the owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is rickrolling.

Oofery is ranked 289,399th in the world and 5,106th in The East Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -24.85 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
