The Democratic Republic of Ump30 is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, otherworldly petting zoo, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 6.763 billion Ump30ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 61.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ump30ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,647 trillion Dollars 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. 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 an amazing 243,610 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Things are looking up for patients accidentally prescribed erectile dysfunction medication, there has been a rapid increase of noise complaints over the sound of buzzing bees, the big red machine has ground to a halt, and pregnant hitchhikers with signs requesting rides to "competent care" are a common sight on Ump30ian roads. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ump30's national animal is the Giraffe, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Ump30 is ranked 218,538th in the world and 7,997th in Osiris for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -5.29 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
