The Queen's State of Stoyuma is a gargantuan, safe nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 29.837 billion Stoyumans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 67.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but sluggish Stoyuman economy, worth 602 trillion betales a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Beef-Based Agriculture, Woodchip Exports, Automobile Manufacturing, and Arms Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 20,199 betales, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Education and welfare spending are on the rise, political parties are banned from advertising and receiving private donations, gambling is outlawed, and voting is voluntary. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Stoyuma's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Stoyuma is ranked 104,208^th in the world and 2^nd in Monaco for Lowest Crime Rates, with 65.37 law-abiding acts per hour.
