The Loving Couple of -Too Many Options- is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Echo Mouse with an even hand, and notable for its frequent executions, unlimited-speed roads, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 4.651 billion -Too Many Options-ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large, corrupt, moralistic government prioritizes Administration, with Industry, Defense, and Welfare also on the agenda, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Owl House. The average income tax rate is 71.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient -Too Many Options-ian economy, worth 469 trillion snails a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 100,968 snails, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Tourists are forbidden to enter Native -Too Many Options-ian lands, coalition governments are essential to passing new laws, the most commonly-worn shoes are concrete ones, and the country behaves just like a group of independent provinces all stacked up under a trench coat. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. -Too Many Options-'s national animal is the owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Cards.

-Too Many Options- is ranked 34,046th in the world and 1st in The Northern Reach for Most Beautiful Environments, with 793.92 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
