The Allied States of Overcast is a colossal, safe nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape. The devout population of 4.097 billion Overcastians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Defense, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 38.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Overcastian economy, worth 110 trillion rubles a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Cheese Exports, and Gambling. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 27,004 rubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Military spending recently hit a new high and the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Overcast's national animal is the cobra, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Overcast is ranked 205,257^th in the world and 1^st in Supremacy of hyphen for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring zero on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
