The Loving Couple of -Too ManyOptions- is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Kevin with an iron fist, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, public floggings, and avant-garde cinema. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.552 billion -Too ManyOptions-ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bonesborough. The average income tax rate is 71.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient -Too ManyOptions-ian economy, worth 473 trillion snails a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 104,019 snails, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Almost all the visible space on TV screens is taken up by advertising, solving crossword puzzles requires fluency in at least five languages, children dream of becoming physicians and physicists, and cops in Bonesborough spend much of their time napping on a park bench next to Embassy Row. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. -Too ManyOptions-'s national animal is the owl, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Cards.

-Too ManyOptions- is ranked 47,758^th in the world and 6^th in United States for Lowest Crime Rates, with 74.85 law-abiding acts per hour.
