Suggestions on a weird ospf setup

So I'm trying to work out a solution for ospf in my environment. It's government work, so as always it is a little strange. I have a firewall running as my default gateway. Down below I have about 30 virtual routers in front of different clouds.

I want my firewall to have ospf relationship with every router, easy. But I also don't want any of those routers to neighbor with eachother and route directly to eachother. Essentially I don't want anything to leave those without hitting the firewall first.

Now I could setup a different area with each router, but that seems like a very crappy way to go forward. It seems possible to do BGP, but that seems also like a very imperfect solution.

As far as practical application I'm not great with OSPF so I'm sure there are things I'm missing. Is there are better solution for this? Thanks!
