The Dogs' Paradise of Futago Pass is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by Sirius with a fair hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, state-planned economy, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.969 billion Ohu Soldiers are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gajō. The average income tax rate is 81.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Ohu economy, worth 434 trillion rations a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 72,804 rations, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Tourists need only sign on the dotted line to become citizens, space shuttles regularly launch rubbish into space, there is a heavy social stigma attached to e-cigarettes, and criminals lock themselves in their mums' basements to avoid prison. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Futago Pass's national animal is the Tora-ge Akita Inu, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Futago Pass is ranked 231,529^th in the world and 1^st in Ohu for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -4.56 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
