The Republic of Ancient Omaha is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by Sovereign with an iron fist, and remarkable for its compulsory vegetarianism, keen interest in outer space, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 15.639 billion Ancient Omahans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mesopotamia. The average income tax rate is 76.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ancient Omahan economy, worth a remarkable 2,389 trillion gold coins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Retail, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 152,765 gold coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Nano-unicorns are the current fad sweeping the nation, film studios own the rights to actors' likenesses until the next millennium, fur coats have become the latest fashion trend, and buildings are experiencing some new ten-ants. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ancient Omaha's national animal is the unicorn, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Melchizedek.

Ancient Omaha is ranked 30,192^nd in the world and 5^th in Ancient for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 27,545.21 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
