The Federal Republic of 129 Uma is a huge, efficient nation, notable for its frequent executions, zero percent divorce rate, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 945 million 129 Umen 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 Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 54.2%.

The all-consuming 129 Uman economy, worth 75.6 trillion monies a year, is quite specialized and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is 79,991 monies, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 391,567 per year while the poor average 9,374, a ratio of 41.8 to 1.

Half-submerged and flooded seaside hotels are technically still next to the beach, parents giddily refuse to pay their toddlers' medical bills, park rangers perform full-body searches on suspected fungus smugglers, and hand-to-hand combat experience is udderly essential for all dairy ranchers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. 129 Uma's national animal is the card, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

129 Uma is ranked 34,193^rd in the world and 7^th in Izern for Greatest Rich-Poor Divides, with 41.77 Rich To Poor Income Ratio.
