The African Republic of Mombombu is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by President Imamu Mgumbe with an iron fist, and renowned for its deadly medical pandemics, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 21.839 billion Mombombuans 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 medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government is effectively ruled by the Department of Defense, with Law & Order and Industry also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Welfare receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Malī. The average income tax rate is 95.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Mombombuan economy, worth a remarkable 8,002 trillion pulas a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Gambling, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 366,426 pulas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Military information leaks are **REDACTED** by **REDACTED** in **REDACTED**, foreign leaders' Twitcher accounts are monitored for potential threats to national security, young soldiers are shocked to discover there are no 'safe spaces' on a battlefield, and the people consider response to rudeness to be an acceptable casus belli. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mombombu's national animal is the zebra, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Catholocism.

Mombombu is ranked 6,280th in the world and 3rd in Africa for Lowest Crime Rates, with 111.24 law-abiding acts per hour.
