The Empire of Cardmania90044 is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its unlimited-speed roads, disturbing lack of elderly people, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 11.114 billion Cardmania90044ians 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, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 75.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Cardmania90044ian economy, worth a remarkable 2,335 trillion Yen a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is an amazing 210,143 Yen, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 719,724 per year while the poor average 45,072, a ratio of 16.0 to 1.

Dubiously qualified Skandilundian barristers keep referring to laws as 'government guidelines', heavily-laden pregnant women are told they can manage, the immigration office has an express line for people bringing cash in briefcases, and new pests have been imported into Cardmania90044. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cardmania90044's national animal is the Tiger, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
