The Republic of Mambo 161 is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its restrictive gun laws, suspicion of poets, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, devout population of 758 million Mambo 161ians 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, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 29.2%.

The Mambo 161ian economy, worth 46.4 trillion izerns a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Automobile Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 61,251 izerns, with the richest citizens earning 5.7 times as much as the poorest.

Scrapyards are filled with Leader's face, lifeguards are more concerned with watching for sharks than struggling swimmers, the volume of paperwork used to complete a single environmental assessment defeats the purpose, and over a third of the seats in sports stadiums have been removed to make room for female-only commodes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mambo 161's national animal is the izern, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Mambo 161 is ranked 254,290^th in the world and 605^th in Izern for Most Secular, with 12.64 Atheism Rate.
