The Incorporated States of Cardmania900127 is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its frequent executions, ubiquitous missile silos, and aversion to nipples. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 10.939 billion Cardmania900127ians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 76.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Cardmania900127ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,730 trillion Euros a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 158,234 Euros, with the richest citizens earning 7.5 times as much as the poorest.

Nighttime sightings of raccoons sporting Circle-A patches and bandanna masks are on the rise, the government has strong opinions about what goes into your bodily orifices, many Cardmania900127ians twitch nervously at the sight of nuns, and school children across the country are staging hunger strikes to protest government-mandated salads. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cardmania900127's national animal is the Vulture, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Cardmania900127 is ranked 267,787th in the world and 77th in Lily for Most Beautiful Environments, with 90.46 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
