The Sheep shoop of Vest Oldabre is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Kyte Wardin with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, zero percent divorce rate, and ban on automobiles. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 12.238 billion mistakes are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Exalos. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 77.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Vest Oldabrean economy, worth a remarkable 4,828 trillion Pebbleses a year, is quite specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Retail, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is an amazing 394,587 Pebbleses, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,152,745 per year while the poor average 106,662, a ratio of 10.8 to 1.

Super Barry Brothers is the most popular video game in the nation, ethnic minorities are often refused admission to some of the nation's best schools, disposable antiseptic wipes are considered a social necessity, and whipping posts and lashes have been transferred to the Historical Museum of Vest Oldabrean Embarrassments. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a well-funded police force. Vest Oldabre's national animal is the Wood Jester, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is bread.

Vest Oldabre is ranked 339,055th in the world and 151st in The Glorious Nations of Iwaku for Most Pacifist, with 2.42 cheeks turned per day.
