The Republic of Umbreon- is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its ritual sacrifices, avant-garde cinema, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 1.036 billion Umbreon-ians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 11.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Umbreon-ian economy, worth 70.3 trillion Eevee Coins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Gambling, and Cheese Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 67,828 Eevee Coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Hospitals have to sell their computers on vBay in order to afford the ransomware decryption payments, Goldilocks has found a lucrative career as a zoning consultant, teams of painters are converting road signs from horse lengths to kilometers, and the nation's diplomatic missives are now delivered via sniper rifle. Crime is relatively low. Umbreon-'s national animal is the Eevee, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Umbreon- is ranked 264,210th in the world and 19th in The Kingdom of Eevee for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 26.77 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
