The Republic of Ump27 is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its infamous sell-swords, disturbing lack of elderly people, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.621 billion Ump27ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 45.2%.
The frighteningly efficient Ump27ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,141 trillion Pesos a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 172,413 Pesos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.5 times as much as the poorest.
A new guerrilla marketing campaign for tap water involves government agents spraying random citizens with hose water, the same 6621 social media bloggers always loudly and immediately agree with Leader's every word on Twitcher, delivery truck companies use hospital parking lots to store 16-wheelers, and colonial citizens are forced to sing the praise of the "Great Ump27ian Liberator". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ump27's national animal is the Giraffe, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Ump27 is ranked 110,860th in the world and 1,312th in Osiris for Most Stationary, with 355.7373417724 days.
