The Free Land of Obdot is a very large, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, compulsory military service, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 280 million Obdots are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 73.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish a loyal subject of Martin Magni economy, worth 6.81 trillion Gems a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, highly specialized black market in Trout Farming and Arms Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 24,337 Gems, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Hazmat suits are a common a loyal subject of Martin Magni garb, fashion models are guaranteed to be 100% genuinely as anorexic as they appear on magazine covers, legislators must raise their hands if they want to speak, and the nation's coasts have been left unprotected while the entire navy sits in Brasilistani waters. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Obdot's national animal is the Obdot, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Obdot is ranked 106,204^th in the world and 3^rd in fancade for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 236.81 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
