The United Kingdom of Norveeba is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Ruddy Ndala with an even hand, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, compulsory gun ownership, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, humorless, devout population of 4.26 billion Norveebans 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Okeshuga. The average income tax rate is 73.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Norveeban economy, worth 543 trillion dosses a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 127,465 dosses, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

An internet search for the word "bland" produces pictures of Ruddy Ndala, students and teachers are regularly stopped and searched for symbols of religious affiliation before class, lawyers turn down litigation cases and corporate work in order to focus on lucrative public defence work, and homosexuality is a crime punishable by death. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Norveeba's national animal is the dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Christianity.

Norveeba is ranked 242,363^rd in the world and 4,001^st in The East Pacific for Most Extreme, scoring 11.28 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
