The Overwhelming Trauma of Thought Obliteration is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Chain of Command with an iron fist, and renowned for its anti-smoking policies, sprawling nuclear power plants, and avant-garde cinema. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 5.55 billion helpless victims are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Administration also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of TM001313. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient dehumanizing economy, worth a remarkable 2,783 trillion Ration Bonds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Trout Farming. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is a breathtaking 501,510 Ration Bonds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Ice-filled coffins are ominously positioned in the corner of every hospital ward, motorists' locations are constantly tracked by intelligence and law enforcement agencies, the dehumanizing delegation to the World Assembly is having a hard time convincing people that international law will "pay for itself somehow...", and children as young as twelve are conscripted into the armed forces. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Thought Obliteration's national animal is the Awakened Primordial Horror, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is the corruption of evolution.

Thought Obliteration is ranked 285,750^th in the world and 6,274^th in The North Pacific for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 3.75 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
