The Confederacy of Hummantris is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its daily referendums, disturbing lack of elderly people, and ritual sacrifices. The compassionate, devout population of 8.948 billion Hummantrians 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Earth. The average income tax rate is 58.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The all-consuming Hummantrisian economy, worth 853 trillion Criones a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is 95,397 Criones, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.
Basic multiplication is all you need to know to have a child, a niche industry catering to S&M enthusiasts has sprung up, a referendum must be held in order for any new law to be passed, and creating dance remixes is the newest form of conspicuous consumption. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hummantris's national animal is the cobra, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Hummantris is ranked 239,235th in the world and 47th in The Interdimensional Community for Most Primitive, scoring -124.71 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
