The Green Light of OK is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Leader Awaiting Approval with an iron fist, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and lack of airports. The compassionate, cynical, humorless population of 31.407 billion OKians 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 enormous, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Checkbox. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 90.4%.

The frighteningly efficient OKian economy, worth a remarkable 3,939 trillion Stamps a year, is extremely specialized and solely comprised of the Book Publishing industry. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 125,433 Stamps, with the richest citizens earning 6.8 times as much as the poorest.

Thousands of children die every day from easily curable illnesses, there is no rest for the widowed, the nation forgives those who are big enough to admit they made a mistake, and programmes of questionable content are shown at peak-hours. Crime is relatively low, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. OK's national animal is the Tick, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

OK is ranked 40,978th in the world and 1st in Axis of Absurdity for Highest Average Incomes, with 125,433.42 Standard Monetary Units.
