The Species Preservation Hotline of 1-800-OWL-BEARs is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its pith helmet sales, ubiquitous missile silos, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 9.118 billion Owlbears are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Warren. The average income tax rate is 79.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Owlbeari economy, worth a remarkable 1,491 trillion Coins a year, is quite specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Soda Sales, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 163,577 Coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

The dead fish in the national rivers aren't decomposing because even bacteria can't survive the levels of toxicity, everybody's got wood thanks to Leader, billions of Coins are being poured into a space program, and the term "Native Owlbear" has been redefined as anyone with the same skin color as the majority. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. 1-800-OWL-BEARs's national animal is the Owl, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

1-800-OWL-BEARs is ranked 45,621st in the world and 65th in Anarchy for Most Stationary, with 959.1944208374 days.
