The Federal Republic of The Buckeye States is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Nickolaus von Böhm with a fair hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, ubiquitous missile silos, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.894 billion Buckeye Staters hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Colombus. The average income tax rate is 90.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Buckeye Statesian economy, worth 791 trillion Buckeye Dollars a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 134,291 Buckeye Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Discarded pennies litter the streets, orthopaedics patients often have a bounce in their step, unpackaged foodstuffs rot on store shelves, and The Buckeye States has been recently classified as an international menace after 'liberating' several nearby territories. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Buckeye States's national animal is the Cardinal, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Thicc Boism.

The Buckeye States is ranked 4,679^th in the world and 151^st in The East Pacific for Most Popular Tourist Destinations, with 2,032.02 Tourists Per Hour.
