The County of Niobrara is a gargantuan, safe nation, notable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, restrictive gun laws, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 13.328 billion Niobrarans are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, moralistic government is primarily concerned with Spirituality, although Law & Order and Defense are also considered important, while Social Policy and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lusk. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.2%.

The strong Niobraran economy, worth 792 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Woodchip Exports, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 59,463 dollars, with the richest citizens earning 7.1 times as much as the poorest.

Protesters are up in arms over new nuclear power stations, every product goes through extensive safety-testing by the government, Leader has just been declared ruler of Niobrara in an international press conference, and a major religion has been named as Niobrara's national religion. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Niobrara's national animal is the buffalo.

Niobrara is ranked 50,178^th in the world and 10^th in County for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 3,899.33 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
