“Your first is your second if your third is wrong”

The Holy Empire of Dalumba is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its national health service, free-roaming dinosaurs, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, democratic population of 630 million Lumbaños love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 77.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Lumbal economy, worth 70.1 trillion Kashings a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 111,286 Kashings, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Government workers are more efficient and more unhappy than ever, the nation's infamous boot camp is more brutal than most battlefields, conscripts often volunteer for a second tour of duty so they can get a ticket to next year's Army Revue, and the Finance Ministry posts hourly updates on where taxpayer money is spent. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dalumba's national animal is the Seapig, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Dalumba is ranked 31,595^th in the world and 229^th in Europeia for Most Developed, scoring 82.33 on the Human Development Index.
