The Constitutional Monarchy of Numeracy is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Queen Eleanor III with an even hand, and notable for its pith helmet sales, fear of technology, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful, devout population of 23.644 billion Numericans 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 government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Stippenherth. The average income tax rate is 98.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Numerican economy, worth a remarkable 3,603 trillion Kroner a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 152,389 Kroner, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

All facts are created equal, the nation is currently revamping its entire education system, the government single-handedly sustains the bunk bed market, and the tenet of free speech is held dear. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Numeracy's national animal is the Numerican Hart, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Numeracy is ranked 324,907^th in the world and 56^th in Middle Earth for Highest Drug Use, scoring 3.19 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
