The Principality of Zumpramonian is a massive, pleasant nation, renowned for its ban on automobiles, pith helmet sales, and public floggings. The hard-nosed population of 1.25 billion Zumpramonianians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The enormous, moralistic government prioritizes Defense, although Administration, Law & Order, and Education are also considered important, while International Aid receives no funds. The average income tax rate is 57.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Zumpramonianian economy, worth 57.9 trillion pesos 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 a large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. 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 46,358 pesos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Black tea is only available on the black market, the government only invests in infrastructure after a natural disaster, politicians bribe ten-year-old geniuses to sit their aptitude tests, and the government invades its allies more than its enemies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zumpramonian's national animal is the lion.

Zumpramonian is ranked 277,621^st in the world and 10,438^th in Balder for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -10.77 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
