The  Quarantined Peoples  of Nooooooooooooooo is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by John Edwards with a fair hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and complete lack of prisons. The compassionate, democratic population of 7.078 billion Noons 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 government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Salabrachon. The average income tax rate is 94.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Noon economy, worth 715 trillion golds a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 101,101 golds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The weather in Salabrachon is always 'pigeons with a chance of droppings', truth is often impossible to tell from fiction on the evening news, discarded pennies litter the streets, and the nation turns a blind eye to human rights abuses in its quest for athletic supremacy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nooooooooooooooo's national animal is the cow bat, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Nooooooooooooooo is ranked 3,954^th in the world and 2^nd in Callista for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 9,598.05 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
