The United Socialist States of Ovation is a colossal, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its stringent health and safety legislation. The devout population of 3.208 billion Ovationians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government prioritizes Spirituality, with Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 31.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Ovationian economy, worth 70.3 trillion rubledollars a year, is led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Furniture Restoration, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 21,898 rubledollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ovation's national animal is the hawk.

Ovation is ranked 283,038^th in the world and 1^st in Stormlance for Most Extensive Public Healthcare, scoring 566.23 on the Theresa-Nightingale Rating.
