The Holy Empire of Dalumba is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its pith helmet sales, lack of airports, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 832 million Lumbaños 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 large, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 78.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Lumbal economy, worth 96.2 trillion Kashings a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 115,622 Kashings, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Nobody is allowed to stop the local daycare from reading Nietzsche to pre-schoolers, appliance stores are finding spy cameras embedded in their unboxed merchandise, youth call each other types of vegetables in lieu of government-banned racial insults, and physics lessons mostly involve talking about emotional management techniques. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dalumba's national animal is the Seapig, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Dalumba is ranked 276,996^th in the world and 1,161^st in Europeia for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring -5.37 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
