“In God Is Our Trust.”

The Common Democratic States of Namabia is a colossal, devout nation, ruled by President Caleb with an even hand, and remarkable for its punitive income tax rates. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 5.412 billion are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it is mainly concerned with Religion & Spirituality, although the Environment and Social Welfare are on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 100%. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising fourteen-year-old boys selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

Cheese has become the new icon of political dissent, a nation-wide cull of doves is in effect, there has been a series of riots between local cannibals and health food advocates, and government officials have to mortgage their homes to make ends meet. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is moderate. Namabia's national animal is the dove, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Namabian Coin.

Namabia is ranked 1st in the region and 1,654th in the world for Happiest Citizens.
