The Loving Couple of -OneTruePairing is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Malphas with an iron fist, and renowned for its compulsory vegetarianism, aversion to nipples, and rampant corporate plagiarism. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 10.133 billion -OneTruePairingians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bonesborough Library. The average income tax rate is 69.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient -OneTruePairingian economy, worth a remarkable 1,187 trillion snails a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 117,171 snails, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Military promises of adventure don't live up to the brochure for unwilling conscripts, the nation's green cities are indeed concrete jungles, apprentice builders get teased for wearing hard hats, and popular websites like NationStates are blocked for "national security". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. -OneTruePairing's national animal is the owl, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Cards.

-OneTruePairing is ranked 173,564th in the world and 3rd in Silent for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 35,971.74 Standard Monetary Units.
