The Republic of Buckeyemania is a huge, cultured nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, digital currency, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 286 million Buckeyemanians are known throughout the region for their efficiency and work ethic, as well as their general suspicion of leisure.

The medium-sized, moralistic government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Healthcare, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. The average income tax rate is 47.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Buckeyemanian economy, worth 19.4 trillion Buckeye nuts a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 67,679 Buckeye nuts, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Every microwave and toaster is being disassembled and probed by inspectors, prime commercial land is being swamped with archaeological teams, the dwindling faithful in the nation make expensive pilgrimages to the remaining places of worship, and the new coalition government has 99 problems and can't agree on how to fix one. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Buckeyemania's national animal is the Brutus Buckeye, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Buckeyemania is ranked 47,628^th in the world and 912^th in The East Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 154.37 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
