The Democratic States of Ump52 is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its frequent executions, compulsory military service, and avant-garde cinema. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.464 billion Ump52ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 47.8%.
The frighteningly efficient Ump52ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,382 trillion Monies a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 213,853 Monies, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.
Prison is a nightmare, no animal is considered endangered if there's another that looks kind of like it, the government has granted that two plus two makes four, and the government is denying reports that criminals injected with experimental drugs have turned into monstrous supervillains. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ump52's national animal is the Rattlesnake, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Ump52 is ranked 19,161st in the world and 1,280th in Balder for Lowest Crime Rates, with 90.41 law-abiding acts per hour.
