The Loving Couple of Oh Crikey- is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Owlbert with an iron fist, and remarkable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, infamous sell-swords, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.587 billion Oh Crikey-ians 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, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Portal. The average income tax rate is 76.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Oh Crikey-ian economy, worth 478 trillion snails 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 large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Furniture Restoration, Woodchip Exports, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. 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 85,707 snails, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A government program is underway to revitalize Oh Crikey-'s beaches, town nameplates frequently raise giggles from passing tourists, children as young as eight can present logical proofs for the existence of the afterlife, and perverts across the land rejoice after 'sexual harassment' was recently renamed 'persuasive courting'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Oh Crikey-'s national animal is the owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Cards.

Oh Crikey- is ranked 13,373^rd in the world and 1^st in Raxulan Empire for Most Extensive Public Healthcare, scoring 6,540.11 on the Theresa-Nightingale Rating.
