The Republic of Mambo 99 is a massive, orderly nation, remarkable for its enslaved workforce, frequent executions, and unlimited-speed roads. The compassionate, cynical population of 1.031 billion Mambo 99ians 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 large, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 62.4%.

The thriving Mambo 99ian economy, worth 85.7 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, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Retail. 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 83,132 currencies, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 317,198 per year while the poor average 15,073, a ratio of 21.0 to 1.

Banning party poppers has been a real party pooper, it's been a banner year for local vexillology, kids refer to anything below the neck as "the parts that shall not be named", and colonists who were promised new lands find only war-torn devastation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mambo 99's national animal is the animal, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Mambo 99 is ranked 49,419^th in the world and 187^th in Izern for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 1,990.85 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
