The Republic of Olive Ocean is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, state-planned economy, and zero percent divorce rate. The compassionate population of 2.259 billion Olive Oceanians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 30.8%.

The strong Olive Oceanian economy, worth 157 trillion stardusts a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 69,686 stardusts, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 223,419 per year while the poor average 16,487, a ratio of 13.6 to 1.

The government is reining in public spending, immigrants who don't like the taste of Olive Oceanian Turnip Chips are immediately deported, a murderous reputation can revitalise a flagging celebrity career, and the Violetist community celebrates bombshells being dropped on Olive Ocean. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Olive Ocean's national animal is the moonlark, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Olive Ocean is ranked 97,572^nd in the world and 1^st in Olive Ocean for Lowest Crime Rates, with 68.26 law-abiding acts per hour.
