The Republic of Mumei is a mammoth, pleasant nation, remarkable for its burgeoning porpoise population. The hard-working population of 9.639 billion Mumeians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 17.7%.

The Mumeian economy, worth 432 trillion rubles a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 44,892 rubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mumei's national animal is the porpoise, which can occasionally be seen avoiding garbage in the nation's murky oceans.

Mumei is ranked 150,567^th in the world and 3^rd in Hyogo for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 73.48 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
