The Humanist Brotherhood of Olamh is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by President Antonio Antonoman with a fair hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and national health service. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 4.397 billion Olamhians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Olamhopolis. The average income tax rate is 93.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Olamhian economy, worth 880 trillion Men a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 200,187 Men, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation has welcomed its expats back with open arms, the saying 'break a leg' is now taken literally, the navy is chrome-plating its battleships to prevent rust, and political scientists despair as the national mascot election eclipses all others in voter enthusiasm. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Olamh's national animal is the Dodo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Atheism.

Olamh is ranked 171,471st in the world and 109th in Karma for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 504.47 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
