The Free Land of Sumina is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by the people with an iron fist, and renowned for its frequent executions, avowedly heterosexual populace, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 5.735 billion Suminans 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 relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sugus. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 22.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Suminan economy, worth a remarkable 1,385 trillion euros a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 241,630 euros, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,536,607 per year while the poor average 15,708, a ratio of 97.8 to 1.

Strip mining of rare earth metals is up while back problems are down, men are expected to stay home to fix funny noises in the attic, grandparents tell young ones tales of the good old days when people had cake on their birthday, and the richest individuals apparently buy nothing but noodles and toilet paper. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sumina's national animal is the lion, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Idiocy.

Sumina is ranked 214,596th in the world and 3,780th in the South Pacific for Most Average, scoring 31.33 on the Average Standardized Normality Scale.
