The Federal Republic of Nomaur is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Aidan with an even hand, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, state-planned economy, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, cheerful population of 3.447 billion Nomaurians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zibrek. The average income tax rate is 39.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Nomaurian economy, worth 286 trillion Kremots a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Book Publishing. Average income is 83,044 Kremots, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Nomaur's citizens often wander into each other's homes, libraries are now installed with jacuzzis and mini-bars, murderers frequently escape punishment by claiming they were protecting their honour, and lifeguards are more concerned with watching for sharks than struggling swimmers. Crime is totally unknown. Nomaur's national animal is the panther, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Nomaur is ranked 90,770^th in the world and 540^th in Europe for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 3,639.55 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
