The Republic of 27 Uma is a massive, safe nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, disturbing lack of elderly people, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 1.627 billion 27 Umen are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 58.8%.

The frighteningly efficient 27 Uman economy, worth 181 trillion monies a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 111,575 monies, with the richest citizens earning 7.0 times as much as the poorest.

Disadvantaged neighbourhoods have become no-go areas after sundown, the latest electric jet fighter has almost enough battery charge to reach cruising altitude -- provided you don't use the radar, the annual government yacht trip is sponsored by criminal syndicates, and party leaders rely on horoscopes to create "ticket balance". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. 27 Uma's national animal is the card, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

27 Uma is ranked 53,917^th in the world and 112^th in Izern for Highest Average Incomes, with 111,575.64 Standard Monetary Units.
