The Error-Prone Scholars of Revert is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by ol' Jasper with a fair hand, and renowned for its complete absence of social welfare. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 20.675 billion live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, liberal, pro-business individuals juggles the competing demands of Commerce, Education, and Social Equality. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Errortopolis. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Book Publishing industry, followed by Automobile Manufacturing and Woodchip Exports.

The streets are ravaged by murder and violence to prove political points, abortions are routinely performed in Revert's hospitals, organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, and same-sex marriages are increasingly common. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is crippling, and the police force struggles against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Revert's national animal is the Kafkaesque swallow, which is also the nation's favorite main course, its national religion is Undoism, and its currency is the wooden peg.

Revert is ranked 3,010th in Osiris and 128,793rd in the world for Largest Public Sector, scoring -16 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
