The Calm Nation of Morbus is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by The Council of Liches with an even hand, and notable for its soft-spoken computers, absence of drug laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 7.585 billion Morbusians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lethe. The average income tax rate is 95.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Morbusian economy, worth a remarkable 1,536 trillion Danakes 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 significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 202,518 Danakes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Medical staff can legally quiet people who ask for a second helping of Salisbury steak, truncheon-mounted cameras record the beating of criminals in dynamic HD detail, one can wake up in Morbus and have breakfast in Bigtopia, and AI citizens are criticized for being robotic. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Morbus's national animal is the Bat, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Magitekism.

Morbus is ranked 4,366^th in the world and 4^th in Hell for Lowest Crime Rates, with 120.02 law-abiding acts per hour.
