The Generous Trading Card Donor of Oh Kyle is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Yodle with an even hand, and notable for its state-planned economy, daily referendums, and frequent executions. The compassionate, devout population of 11.174 billion Oh Kyleans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of North Pole. The average income tax rate is 75.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Oh Kylean economy, worth a remarkable 1,245 trillion Gold Coins 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 Furniture Restoration. 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 an impressive 111,445 Gold Coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

If there's something strange in your neighborhood you call Brancaland, in distant lands the nation is known as a lovely place that was even better in the good old days, graverobbers claim they're acting within the interest of 'scientific preservation', and the sun now sets on the Oh Kylean Empire. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Oh Kyle's national animal is the Cow, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Yodlism.

Oh Kyle is ranked 43,732nd in the world and 82nd in The Region That Has No Big Banks for Most Cultured, scoring 73 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
