The Republic of The oberkommando is a gargantuan, efficient nation, renowned for its anti-smoking policies, public floggings, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 23.2 billion oberkommandoans 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 45.1%.

The very strong oberkommandoan economy, worth a remarkable 1,669 trillion nas a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Tourism. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 71,957 nas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.7 times as much as the poorest.

Imitation is the sincerest form of felony, droves of former desperados are applying to join the border police, diplomatic missions typically end with a flurry of childish insults, accusations and phlegm, and appendix transplant figures have recently doubled. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The oberkommando's national animal is the na.

The oberkommando is ranked 131,481st in the world and 1st in oberkommando for Most Stationary, with 247.82554972488 days.
