The Republic of Ump92 is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its ban on automobiles, public floggings, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.447 billion Ump92ians 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, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 90.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Ump92ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,431 trillion marks a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Furniture Restoration, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an amazing 222,080 marks, with the richest citizens earning 9.0 times as much as the poorest.

Ump92 shot first, card players are calling the government's bluff on anti-gambling legislation, the roundel of the Ump92ian Air Force has become an internationally recognized symbol of destruction, and a tax exemption has created a new hunger for octogenarian millionaires dating women 60 years their younger. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ump92's national animal is the giraffe, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ump92 is ranked 6,896^th in the world and 347^th in Balder for Lowest Crime Rates, with 108.88 law-abiding acts per hour.
