The Chat-filled roadbed of Will Rogers Turnpike is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Will Rogers with a fair hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, punitive income tax rates, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 41.047 billion Oklahomans 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.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vinita. The average income tax rate is 83.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The enormous but sluggish Will Rogers Turnpikean economy, worth a remarkable 1,042 trillion pikepasses a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 25,400 pikepasses, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Teams of painters are converting road signs from horse lengths to kilometers, military barracks resemble five-star hotels, notable individuals are granted land and titles, and the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Will Rogers Turnpike's national animal is the prairie dog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Will Rogers Turnpike is ranked 273,777th in the world and 7th in Oklahoma for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -9.94 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
