The Oppressed Peoples of Detek Lunesta Qok is a huge, safe nation, ruled by The Supreme Almighty Ruling Council with an iron fist, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, punitive income tax rates, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, cynical population of 793 million Qokists are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Weron Kerute Qok. The average income tax rate is 71.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Detek Lunesta Qokian economy, worth 32.7 trillion Qoks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Information Technology, Basket Weaving, Uranium Mining, and Cheese Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 41,238 Qoks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The Federal Council of Detek Lunesta Qok has been announced as the new Head of State, arbitrary election rules are considered sacrosanct, to say that military robots are inclined towards violence is offensive, and tourists visiting the nation are harangued for being capitalist pig-dogs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Detek Lunesta Qok's national animal is the cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Detek Lunesta Qok is ranked 38,670th in the world and 604th in Europe for Highest Food Quality, scoring 43.02 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
