The Kingdom of Sumalba is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Affar Gaaldil with an iron fist, and notable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, anti-smoking policies, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.48 billion Soomaalbas are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Haramcadiya. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 51.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Soomaalbana economy, worth a remarkable 1,725 trillion Sumalba Shillings a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Retail, and Information Technology. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 266,329 Sumalba Shillings, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,818,108 per year while the poor average 14,133, a ratio of 128 to 1.

Preschoolers practice disarming active shooters before naptime, baby strollers have occupier-operated side-mounted machine guns, virtually all of the country's economic activity takes place in Haramcadiya, and the song 'They Got an Awful Lot of Coffee in Sumalba' is a smash hit. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sumalba's national animal is the Camel, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Islam.

Sumalba is ranked 16,782nd in the world and 3rd in The Walbard Union for Lowest Crime Rates, with 92.48 law-abiding acts per hour.
