The Free Land of Cardmania900149 is a gargantuan, orderly nation, renowned for its parental licensing program, compulsory gun ownership, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 10.744 billion Cardmania900149ians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 82.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Cardmania900149ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,830 trillion Euros 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, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. 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 impressive 170,346 Euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

The nation frequently scolds its subject territories for staying up past bedtime, war criminals are given full state funerals, legislators toe the party line lest the Sergeant-at-Arms decide to conduct "truncheon practice" on the backbench, and fewer people are bathing as citizens must show ration stamps before they can turn on their faucets. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cardmania900149's national animal is the Vulture, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Cardmania900149 is ranked 116,907th in the world and 143rd in Lily for Most Stationary, with 319.27241372108 days.
