The Democratic Republic of Obrania is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Annalise Criona with a fair hand, and notable for its smutty television, national health service, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 19.75 billion Obranians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Michaic City. The average income tax rate is 97.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Obranian economy, worth a remarkable 2,726 trillion Obranian złoties a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 138,050 Obranian złoties, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government is notorious for leaving citizens with almost nothing from their inheritance, grandiose stage parents insist superyachts and private cinemas are children's basic needs, Annalise Criona is considering changing the Obranian flag to one with more glitter, and older ladies are inundated with offers to help them cross the road. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Obrania's national animal is the domestic cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Obrania is ranked 4,392nd in the world and 190th in The North Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 179 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
