The Sultanate of Ump26 is a colossal, orderly nation, notable for its feral children, smutty television, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.856 billion Ump26ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 70.3%.
The frighteningly efficient Ump26ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,396 trillion Pesos 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. 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 an amazing 203,679 Pesos, with the richest citizens earning 8.9 times as much as the poorest.
The death penalty has been reintroduced, government-sponsored gallows are being erected by Violetist temples, cotton candy made from genuine cotton cellulose doesn't quite satisfy, and the government regularly hires contractors to construct high rise apartments. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ump26's national animal is the Giraffe, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Ump26 is ranked 284,516th in the world and 10,877th in Balder for Safest, scoring 5.59 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
