The Queendom of Cardmania90020 is a gargantuan, cultured nation, notable for its pith helmet sales, keen interest in outer space, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 11 billion Cardmania90020ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The frighteningly efficient Cardmania90020ian economy, worth a remarkable 2,286 trillion 422s 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 207,877 422s, with the richest citizens earning 5.5 times as much as the poorest.

Children are encouraged to fail at school so as not to appear too enlightened, urban high-volume mailers now receive their mail via chauffeur-driven limousines, the military has declared that 'a woman's place is in the mess hall', and local mafias have a tough time disposing of dead snitches without catching the attention of recycling authorities. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Cardmania90020's national animal is the 42, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
