The Constitutional Monarchy of Ump370 is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, free-roaming dinosaurs, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 4.787 billion Ump370ians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 36.0%.
The frighteningly efficient Ump370ian economy, worth 862 trillion Platinums a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Furniture Restoration. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 180,234 Platinums, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 599,885 per year while the poor average 40,351, a ratio of 14.9 to 1.
Abortions are routinely performed in the nation's hospitals, sex offenders find themselves cut off from the ability to repeat their crimes, high school boys are required to pass vigorous self-mastery and sensitivity training to graduate, and the needs of the living outweigh the needs of the dead. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ump370's national animal is the Wolf, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Ump370 is ranked 282,733rd in the world and 10,776th in Lazarus for Highest Food Quality, scoring 5.38 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
