The Dominion of Oberer is a massive, efficient nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 1.455 billion Obererians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The tiny, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.2%.

The very strong Obererian economy, worth 104 trillion aurum gold bars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Soda Sales industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Information Technology, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 72,138 aurum gold bars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 208,020 per year while the poor average 19,859, a ratio of 10.5 to 1.

The alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit and scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Oberer's national animal is the bovina buffalo, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Oberer is ranked 270,828^th in the world and 1^st in Oberer for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring -3.16 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
