The Kingdom of Untermite

“Never have I ever suppressed my people.”

Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Kingdom of Untermite is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Art Robinson the Bruce with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, frequent executions, and labour-free parental leave. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 8.814 billion Untermitesques 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 government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded, outspoken morass — juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Old Butte Village. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Untermitean economy, worth a remarkable 1,971 trillion Ingots a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Information Technology. Average income is an amazing 223,626 Ingots, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Religious households enthusiastically use whips in private, catching the latest tribal tournament is to die for, sniffer dogs are trained to follow clouds of fruity-smelling vapor, and troublemakers boast about how many times they have to visit their therapist. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Untermite's national animal is the Capybara, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Interconnection.

Untermite is ranked 8,563^rd in the world and 99^th in The East Pacific for Highest Average Incomes, with 223,626.31 Standard Monetary Units.
