The Empire of Narwhalsgomoo is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Crow Emrest de Alger Obelia with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, parental licensing program, and national health service. The compassionate population of 10.381 billion Obelians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Akistra. The average income tax rate is 94.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Obelian economy, worth a remarkable 1,171 trillion Roses a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 112,836 Roses, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Future leaders of Narwhalsgomoo regularly dismiss pressing political issues when available options don't conform to their worldview, the military recognizes no difference between male and female soldiers, a passport is literally priceless, and the internet has been placed under government control. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Narwhalsgomoo's national animal is the Hound, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Narwhalsgomoo is ranked 264,989th in the world and 9,389th in Lazarus for Most Primitive, scoring -210.87 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
