The Holy Black Dictatorship of O B E Y is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by fear with an iron fist, and remarkable for its triple-decker prams, avowedly heterosexual populace, and state-planned economy. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 14.521 billion mindless slaves 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 government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized morass — juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of capital punishment. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient mindless slave labor economy, worth a remarkable 9,837 trillion tax dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, highly specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing and Basket Weaving. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is a breathtaking 677,448 tax dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Vacationing mindless slaves expect to be treated as royalty, family isn't who you're born with but who you abandon in foreign countries, the nation is proudly the least fertile in TERRY, and there are six more weeks of winter if a northerner sees his shadow. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. O B E Y's national animal is the law, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Terryism.

O B E Y is ranked 600^th in the world and 1^st in TERRY for Most Authoritarian, with 12,716.31 milliStalins.
