The Utopian State of Osborl is a huge, safe nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 681 million Osborlians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Some random city. The average income tax rate is 66.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Osborlian economy, worth 80.0 trillion Union Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 117,501 Union Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

The government seizes private property for the 'good of the people', most citizens in Osborl are abject pyrophobes after extremely graphic pamphlets were mailed nationwide by the government, school children asked "what is two times two?" are likely to form a symposium to discuss how different answers make them feel, and power stations shutting down at night has made bedtime reading tricky. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Osborl's national animal is the Beaver, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Osborl is ranked 19,599^th in the world and 285^th in the West Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 312.69 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
