The Loving Couple of -One True-Pairing is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Mason with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, keen interest in outer space, and anti-smoking policies. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 9.993 billion -One True-Pairingians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Construction Coven. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 66.9%.

The frighteningly efficient -One True-Pairingian economy, worth a remarkable 1,268 trillion snails a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an impressive 126,968 snails, with the richest citizens earning 9.3 times as much as the poorest.

Belief that Mason is a lizard-person from outer space has reached an all-time high, the 'Half King of Maxtopia' exhibit is the least popular amongst museum-goers, stage mothers commonly give their children the nickname 'Cash', and school children declare that teachers "may confiscate our toys but they can never take our FREEDOM". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. -One True-Pairing's national animal is the owl, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Cards.

-One True-Pairing is ranked 18,982^nd in the world and 3^rd in The Guild for Largest Black Market, with 186 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
