The Green Light of OK is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Leader Awaiting Approval with an iron fist, and notable for its public floggings, keen interest in outer space, and disturbing lack of elderly people. The compassionate, cynical, humorless population of 31.296 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 government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized morass — prioritizes Education, with Administration, Environment, and Social Policy also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Checkbox. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 89.9%.

The frighteningly efficient OKian economy, worth a remarkable 3,772 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 120,547 Stamps, with the richest citizens earning 6.7 times as much as the poorest.

Kindhearted OKians generously pay taxes for citizens of other countries, the government will gladly pay you next Tuesday for a hamburger today, pinkie promises are a matter of life and death, and pro-democracy protesters are shot on sight by state police. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. OK's national animal is the Tick, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

OK is ranked 326,321st in the world and 6th in Axis of Absurdity for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -13.3 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
