The Free Land of Ump383 is a massive, orderly nation, renowned for its frequent executions, enslaved workforce, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.779 billion Ump383ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 44.8%.
The frighteningly efficient Ump383ian economy, worth 802 trillion Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Automobile Manufacturing, and Information Technology. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 167,972 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.
High food prices have reduced the national diet to staple foods and water, pet owners must make a payment if their charges leave a deposit, new pilots are regularly reminded that they are more expendable than their planes, and forty-year-old men are asked for their ID before watching the latest pony cartoon movies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ump383's national animal is the Vulture, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Ump383 is ranked 54,893rd in the world and 3,246th in Osiris for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 3,991.79 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
