The Humanist Brotherhood of Olamh is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by President Antonio Antonoman with a fair hand, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, otherworldly petting zoo, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 4.366 billion Olamhians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Olamhopolis. The average income tax rate is 93.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Olamhian economy, worth 868 trillion Men a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 198,992 Men, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Giggling teens are asked to put their mouths on rubber dolls, a death threat has replaced 'hello' as an official greeting in the nation, physics lessons mostly involve talking about emotional management techniques, and leading ethologists are being investigated for illegal electoral interference. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Olamh's national animal is the Dodo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Atheism.

Olamh is ranked 3,454th in the world and 7th in Karma for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 662.89 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
