The Sultanate of Oom is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Papa Mau-Mau with a fair hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 22.363 billion Oomians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lily Hammer. The average income tax rate is 52.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Oomian economy, worth a remarkable 2,757 trillion Muriburis a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 123,308 Muriburis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Only adults may purchase violent video games, RPG fans reminisce fondly about when people thought they were evil and dangerous rather than geeky and socially inept, repurposed warships fire swag at company promotional events, and the nation's space program is doxxing the planet. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Oom's national animal is the Crunchy Frog, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Oom is ranked 23,242^nd in the world and 173^rd in 10000 Islands for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 53.18 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
