The Kingdom of Sumahtera is a very large, safe nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and avowedly heterosexual populace. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 118 million Sumans 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, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Defense, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 17.9%.

The Sumahteran economy, worth 6.04 trillion Therans a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Uranium Mining, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 51,160 Therans, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Half-submerged and flooded seaside hotels are technically still next to the beach, 4-year-olds studying for their mathematics exams are anxious that they will be unemployable in adulthood if they fail, the nation's infamous boot camp is more brutal than most battlefields, and perverts across the land rejoice after 'sexual harassment' was recently renamed 'persuasive courting'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sumahtera's national animal is the Great Raja Peafowl, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Sumahtera is ranked 142,916^th in the world and 171^st in The Black Hawks for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 567.55 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
