The Oppressed Peoples of Detek Lunesta Qok is a huge, socially progressive nation, ruled by The Supreme Almighty Ruling Council with an iron fist, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, pith helmet sales, and state-planned economy. The compassionate, cynical population of 820 million Qokists are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Weron Kerute Qok. The average income tax rate is 72.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Detek Lunesta Qokian economy, worth 37.1 trillion Qoks 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, highly specialized black market in Information Technology, Basket Weaving, Uranium Mining, and Cheese Exports. 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 45,293 Qoks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation has returned to more conventional warfare to slaughter its enemies, criminals rejoice in the streets as the entire police force is sent away on a training retreat, diplomatic missions typically end with a flurry of childish insults, accusations and phlegm, and airplane passengers have been known to stuff pillows in their jackets to get extra arm room. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Detek Lunesta Qok's national animal is the cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Detek Lunesta Qok is ranked 24,775^th in the world and 365^th in Europe for Safest, scoring 111.51 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
