The Republic of Mambo 32 is a massive, cultured nation, notable for its enslaved workforce, ritual sacrifices, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 1.244 billion Mambo 32ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 15.4%.

The powerhouse Mambo 32ian economy, worth 122 trillion Izerns a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is notable. Average income is 98,366 Izerns, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 419,152 per year while the poor average 14,844, a ratio of 28.2 to 1.

Roads are often attended by round-the-clock construction crews, homeless people are periodically found dead upon altars to assorted deities, nuclear submarines have been deployed to protect the nation's banana supply, and riot police are stationed around paintings of violent protestors. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mambo 32's national animal is the Izern, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Mambo 32 is ranked 192,718^th in the world and 230^th in Izern for Most Rebellious Youth, scoring -3 on the Stark-Dean Displacement Index.
