The Democratic Republic of Obrania is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Annalise Criona with an even hand, and notable for its irreverence towards religion, restrictive gun laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 19.905 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, Healthcare, and Environment. 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 2,760 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 138,683 Obranian złoties, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Visitors often mistake the toiletplex at music festivals for the main stage, vaccinations are mandatory, sworn provincial enemies must be held back in Annalise Criona's cabinet meetings, and passive-aggressive congratulations cards inform mums-to-be that their pregnancy is their greatest achievement in life. Crime is totally unknown. Obrania's national animal is the domestic cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Obrania is ranked 406th in the world and 26th in The North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 104.91 law-abiding acts per hour.
