The Democratic Republic of Umbreon VMAX is a colossal, safe nation, notable for its ban on automobiles, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The quiet, industrious population of 4.15 billion Umbreon VMAXians 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 Welfare, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 19.2%.

The Umbreon VMAXian economy, worth 211 trillion Delta Eagles a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Uranium Mining, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 50,891 Delta Eagles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

They unpaved paradise and tore up a parking lot (ooh, bop bop bop), nobody knows why the caged Kitsune sings, formerly fertile fields are being leached dry of nutrients by intensive farming, and back-alley circumcision clinics are popping up all over the nation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Umbreon VMAX's national animal is the Kitsune, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Umbreon VMAX is ranked 111,236^th in the world and 5^th in Aomori for Safest, scoring 79.13 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
