The Colony of Inner Sammur is a colossal, orderly nation, renowned for its irreverence towards religion, punitive income tax rates, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 6.199 billion Inner Sammurians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 50.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Inner Sammurian economy, worth 679 trillion Pesos a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 109,622 Pesos, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A weakened police force struggles to maintain law and order, bureaucrats close new businesses for not complying with the Penguin Packaging Index, sniffer dogs are trained to follow clouds of fruity-smelling vapor, and videogames like 'Equalia: Knights of Self-Confidence' are proving inexplicably unpopular. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Inner Sammur's national animal is the Rabbit, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Inner Sammur is ranked 64,508th in the world and 4,166th in Lazarus for Largest Governments, scoring 20.07 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
