The State of Obed Booz is a gargantuan, pleasant nation, remarkable for its complete absence of social welfare. The hard-working, democratic population of 35.075 billion Obed Boozians are known throughout the region for their efficiency and work ethic, as well as their general suspicion of leisure.

The medium-sized, moralistic government prioritizes Education, although Law & Order, Public Transport, and Defense are also considered important, while Welfare receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Westminster. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 22.2%.

The strong Obed Boozian economy, worth a remarkable 1,500 trillion betales a year, is quite specialized and led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is 42,768 betales, with the richest citizens earning 6.8 times as much as the poorest.

Voting is voluntary, a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, and Obed Booz has designated Westminster as its capital city. Crime is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Obed Booz's national animal is the deer.

Obed Booz is ranked 147,714^th in the world and 327^th in State for Most Developed, scoring 55.73 on the Human Development Index.
