The Federation of Ogbem is a small, genial nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 40 million Ogbemians 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, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Welfare, Public Transport, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. The average income tax rate is 36.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Ogbemian economy, worth 1.51 trillion Shillings a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Automobile Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 37,764 Shillings, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

The atmosphere in Ogbemian boardrooms is turning more gay, metal detectors have been banned after a bottle cap caused a riot at the beach, the government forces Ogbemians to eat their vegetables, and ghost regiments exist only on paper. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ogbem's national animal is the Shoebill, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Ogbem is ranked 269,656th in the world and 4th in Bep nation for Highest Average Incomes, with 37,764.58 Standard Monetary Units.
