The Armed Republic of Ump476 is a massive, orderly nation, renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, ban on automobiles, and infamous sell-swords. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 4.788 billion Ump476ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 68.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ump476ian economy, worth 964 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Furniture Restoration. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 201,545 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Terrorist videos start by thanking their sponsors, the military perceives nations hit by natural disasters as "easy pickings", artists from across the nation compete to renovate the restrooms of old government buildings, and scavengers with burlap sacks and shovels skulk around graveyards. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ump476's national animal is the Giraffe, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Ump476 is ranked 9,865^th in the world and 444^th in Balder for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 9,713.6 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
