The Omnisapient Neotopia of Nurdia is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Grand Poohbah Nurdibashi with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate, cheerful population of 46.725 billion Nurdians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The medium-sized government is dominated by the Department of Education, although Social Policy, Healthcare, and Environment are also considered important, while Defense and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nurdiopolis. The average income tax rate is 24.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Nurdian economy, worth a remarkable 5,427 trillion Groats a year, is extremely specialized and solely comprised of the Book Publishing industry. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 116,160 Groats, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Libraries are now installed with jacuzzis and mini-bars, tradesmen will knock 10% off their fees if customers pay cash, abortions are routinely performed in the nation's hospitals, and the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller. Crime is totally unknown. Nurdia's national animal is the Megaprawn, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Nurdia is ranked 41,931^st in the world and 3^rd in The Atlantic for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 205.97 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
