The Federal Republic of Humptalumpta is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Supreme Overloard Norm with a fair hand, and notable for its infamous sell-swords, free-roaming dinosaurs, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 10.283 billion Humptalumptans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sierra Gordo. The average income tax rate is 63.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Humptalumptan economy, worth a remarkable 1,326 trillion Wingwangs a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 129,036 Wingwangs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The people are famous throughout the region for their perfect yellow teeth, undersea volcanoes receive strongly worded letters for violating environmental regulations, anything is permissible when wearing latex gloves, and violently opinionated speakers can be heard preaching their hateful views on every street corner. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Humptalumpta's national animal is the Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The way.

Humptalumpta is ranked 222,485^th in the world and 8,398^th in The North Pacific for Most Primitive, scoring -415.05 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
