The Republic of 2 Uma is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, soft-spoken computers, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical, humorless, devout population of 1.916 billion 2 Umen are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 72.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient 2 Uman economy, worth 225 trillion banks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Cheese Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 117,735 banks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

The Ministry of Health has reported a sharp increase in the incidence of delayed menopause, 2 Uma City University is said to be the modern-day Tower of Babel, 2 Uma's citizens often wander into each other's homes, and many 2 Umen twitch nervously at the sight of nuns. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. 2 Uma's national animal is the card, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

2 Uma is ranked 27,381st in the world and 96th in Izern for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 52.16 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
