The Supreme Overlord of Kevin268 is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Rt Hon Lord Pyper with an iron fist, and remarkable for its national health service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 8.823 billion are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Defence, Law & Order, and Education. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Metropolis. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 87%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, followed by Automobile Manufacturing and Tourism.

Rag-wearing teachers are often mistaken for homeless people, vanity is considered the eighth cardinal virtue, pollsters are out of a job as elections have been cancelled, and graffiti graces every city's streets. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kevin268's national animal is the Tiger, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, its national religion is Buddhism, and its currency is the Pladian.

Kevin268 is ranked 3,036th in the West Pacific and 65,079th in the world for Most Politically Free, scoring 32 on the Diebold Election Inking Scale.
