The Cool and based land of Ovekisu is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by a head of lettuce with a fair hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 4.994 billion Ovekisuans 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of best city. The average income tax rate is 95.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Ovekisuan economy, worth 719 trillion big macs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 143,997 big macs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A new generation of space-obsessed youth are convinced there's nothing out there, high-income earners pay a 100% tax rate, a new "thought police" branch is being developed, and war vets look after war animals. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ovekisu's national animal is the human, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is cow.

Ovekisu is ranked 44,014th in the world and 786th in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 5,608.97 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
