The United Socialist States of Pax Omnibus is a huge, safe nation, notable for its state-planned economy, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 655 million Pax Omnibusians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Eleutheria. The average income tax rate is 77.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Pax Omnibusian economy, worth 16.7 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Tourism, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 25,468 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Only clowns with PhDs from clown college can advise Leader on Pax Omnibus's coulrophobia epidemic, it takes months to get the proper permits for a child's first tricycle, women who walk into the ladies' changing room are accused of being Peeping Toms, and political scientists despair as the national mascot election eclipses all others in voter enthusiasm. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pax Omnibus's national animal is the Swan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Pax Omnibus is ranked 10,600^th in the world and 23^rd in Carcassonne for Safest, scoring 120.28 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
