The People's State of Olvaria is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by High Chairman Helios with an even hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, keen interest in outer space, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 19.984 billion Olvarians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Truvol. The average income tax rate is 98.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Olvarian economy, worth a remarkable 3,809 trillion Tabels a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is an impressive 190,650 Tabels, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Vital intelligence-gathering activities are put on hold as agents return home for seduction training and advanced poker instruction, blue sky thinkers are reminded that the firmament is actually more of a grey-ish colour, giggling teens are asked to put their mouths on rubber dolls, and old dogs don't have to learn new tricks but they have to prove they haven't forgotten old ones. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Olvaria's national animal is the Hurfdog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is irrelevant.

Olvaria is ranked 276,248^th in the world and 29^th in Testregionia for Nicest Citizens, with 0.44 average smiles per day.
