The Content Peoples of Umeria is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Helen D'Annain with a fair hand, and notable for its national health service, daily referendums, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 17.524 billion Umerians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Agora. The average income tax rate is 99.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Umerian economy, worth a remarkable 3,771 trillion euros a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 215,230 euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Multiple polls have christened the newly-formed Filibuster Committee as "the least efficient government bureaucracy", Umerian diplomacy is by the book, the nation is ravaged by daily union strikes, and history textbook pages are used as impromptu tissues by distraught students. Crime is totally unknown. Umeria's national animal is the turtle, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Umeria is ranked 4,470th in the world and 69th in Europe for Lowest Crime Rates, with 119.1 law-abiding acts per hour.
