Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Northern Wasteland of Kumma is a colossal, safe nation, remarkable for its keen interest in outer space. Its compassionate, hard-working, intelligent population of 5.48 billion hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it devotes most of its attentions to Education, with areas such as Religion & Spirituality and Defence receiving almost no funds by comparison. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Forodost. The average income tax rate is 86%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Book Publishing industry.

Citizens are bombarded with advertising from their compulsory minature radios, the government has instituted 'traveller reservations' across the country, Kumma is notorious for its citizens' infidelity, and platypuss are considered a delicacy. Crime is totally unknown. Kumma's national animal is the platypus, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the rupee.

Kumma is ranked 23rd in Hyrule and 100,598th in the world for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -10 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
