The Republic of Amobertnorgus is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by The Glorious Norberta Mogus with an iron fist, and renowned for its compulsory military service, rampant corporate plagiarism, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 1.988 billion Amobertnorgusians 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 juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ratican City. The average income tax rate is 89.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Amobertnorgusian economy, worth 291 trillion Absolute Units a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 146,438 Absolute Units, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Failed genetic experiments wreak havoc as they roam the countryside, handling people's data is proving an immersive experience, one-man canoes fitted with the latest tracking technology leave no room for one man, and no personal detail is too tiny for the suede-denim census police. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Amobertnorgus's national animal is the Terminally Ill Naked Mole Rat, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Amobertnorgus is ranked 11,089th in the world and 166th in the Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 61.26 flags saluted per person per day.
