The Kingdom of Nebemakhet is a gargantuan, cultured nation, notable for its zero percent divorce rate, sprawling nuclear power plants, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 15.83 billion Nebemakhetians 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, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 18.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Nebemakhetian economy, worth a remarkable 3,346 trillion shekels a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 211,371 shekels, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 797,410 per year while the poor average 39,026, a ratio of 20.4 to 1.

Student exchange programs are in trouble as everyone wants to leave but no-one wants to come, on-call doctors who check their pagers during movies are banned from cinemas for life, the running costs of homeless shelters are so high that it would be cheaper to buy houses for the homeless, and ratings for sitcom reruns are often much higher than election debates. Crime is totally unknown. Nebemakhet's national animal is the Ibis, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Nebemakhet is ranked 287,515th in the world and 10,860th in Osiris for Most Primitive, scoring -528.67 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
