The Republic of Mambo 84 is a huge, genial nation, notable for its enslaved workforce, ubiquitous missile silos, and otherworldly petting zoo. The compassionate population of 895 million Mambo 84ians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 40.3%.

The thriving Mambo 84ian economy, worth 74.2 trillion currencies 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 black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Woodchip 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 82,882 currencies, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 286,308 per year while the poor average 17,547, a ratio of 16.3 to 1.

The Communist Party claims that selling things for profit isn't necessarily capitalism, the military has grudgingly released all top secret information in an effort for greater transparency, terrorist videos start by thanking their sponsors, and thousands of children die every day from easily curable illnesses. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mambo 84's national animal is the animal, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Mambo 84 is ranked 237,870^th in the world and 771^st in Izern for Highest Poor Incomes, with 17,547.81 Standard Monetary Units.
