The Holy Empire of Sepulcrum Oblivinis is a huge, cultured nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, prohibition of alcohol, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic, devout population of 396 million Sepulcrum Oblivinisians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Education, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 26.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Sepulcrum Oblivinisian economy, worth 17.0 trillion Sancti Sepulcrums a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 42,808 Sancti Sepulcrums, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Weekends are spent tilting at windmills, treaties are taken to be mere rules of thumb, Propaganda and Partisanship 101 is a required class all political candidates must pass before being nominated by their chosen party, and model railroad hobbyists have taken to muscling model shipbuilders off their "turf". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Sepulcrum Oblivinis's national animal is the Siberian Musk Deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Sepulcrum Oblivinis is ranked 169,474^th in the world and 245^th in The League for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 60.87 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
