The Rogue Nation of 1 Owl is a huge, efficient nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, ban on automobiles, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, devout population of 843 million 1 Owlians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 50.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient 1 Owlian economy, worth 86.6 trillion pellets a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 102,700 pellets, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Getting an autograph has become harder than ever, teachers prefer to give 'Maybe, Maybe Not' tests when dealing with sensitive subjects, the nation is ravaged by daily union strikes, and the government seizes the property of the recently deceased. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. 1 Owl's national animal is the owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

1 Owl is ranked 135,045th in the world and 26th in Quarry Bay for Most Primitive, scoring -39.37 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
