The Kingdom of Cardmania900119 is a gargantuan, cultured nation, renowned for its pith helmet sales, frequent executions, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 10.956 billion Cardmania900119ians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 68.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Cardmania900119ian economy, worth a remarkable 2,209 trillion Credits a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 201,632 Credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

People are turning themselves into worm food, government police forces protect public schools from the threat of protest, if you go into the woods today you're sure of a big surprise, and handling people's data is proving an immersive experience. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Cardmania900119's national animal is the Scorpion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Cardmania900119 is ranked 173,117th in the world and 115th in Lily for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring zero on the Clooney Contribution Index.
