“Who have we turned a blind eye to?”

The Rogue Nation of Obscurum is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its smutty television, irreverence towards religion, and hatred of cheese. The compassionate, democratic population of 10.947 billion Obscurumians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Obscurumian economy, worth a remarkable 2,612 trillion Luciels a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Tourism, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 238,628 Luciels, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It's illegal to be caught on tape, grocery stores can be audibly identified by the giggling emerging from them, search-and-rescue organisations are the biggest employer in the country, and the staffroom being an "icky" colour is a perfectly acceptable reason to not accept a job. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Obscurum's national animal is the Snake, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Obscurum is ranked 1,410^th in the world and 30^th in the Rejected Realms for Smartest Citizens, with 219.57 quips per hour.
