The Dominion of Shamm is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Governor-General Sham with an iron fist, and notable for its digital currency, unlimited-speed roads, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 12.629 billion Shammians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sung Mi City. The average income tax rate is 1.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Shammian economy, worth a remarkable 3,964 trillion dubloons a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 313,933 dubloons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.5 times as much as the poorest.

Adverts proclaim it has to be healthy if the Mornay uses hand-grated Gallopavian Gruyère, the controversial show 'Who Wants to be an Immigrant?' has become wildly popular, weighted heels are added to military boots to ensure diminutive celebrities meet minimum requirements, and in a baffling press conference Governor-General Sham proudly dismantled a broken door. Crime is totally unknown. Shamm's national animal is the rattlesnake, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Shamm is ranked 39,629th in the world and 26th in Conch Kingdom for Most Stationary, with 1,142.15675513032 days.
