The Dictatorship of Cardmania90038 is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its deadly medical pandemics, rampant corporate plagiarism, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 11.074 billion Cardmania90038ians 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 large, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 79.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Cardmania90038ian economy, worth a remarkable 2,377 trillion Yen 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 black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. 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 214,718 Yen, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

The nation's prisons are touted as the best weight loss programs money can't buy, the long arm of the law possesses a rather slow hand, smoking is banned in public areas, and the needs of the living outweigh the needs of the dead. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cardmania90038's national animal is the Tiger, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Cardmania90038 is ranked 224,091^st in the world and 26^th in Lily for Most Primitive, scoring -100.74 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
