The Empire of NotLetum is a very large, genial nation, renowned for its frequent executions, ban on automobiles, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-working, cynical population of 265 million NotLetumians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Environment. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 14.6%.

The thriving NotLetumian economy, worth 11.6 trillion Letums a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 43,774 Letums, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 169,981 per year while the poor average 7,715, a ratio of 22.0 to 1.

Cars are banned, the country is preparing for war, organ donation is compulsory, and when shaking hands with foreign leaders Leader wears an armoured gauntlet. Crime is a serious problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. NotLetum's national animal is the Letum, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

NotLetum is ranked 178,781^st in the world and 1,882^nd in the Pacific for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 820.07 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
