The '''Socialist Democratic Federated Republic of Carbombya''' is a kingdom located in the Sahara Desert region of the continent of [[Africa]] on the planet [[Earth]]. It has a coastline, with foreign ships that venture too close to it often being fired upon. This intensely xenophobic state is ruled by [[Abdul Fakkadi]], and apparently derives most of its wealth from particularly fine oil. The people are often heard swearing on the lives of their mother's camels and so forth. This is of course <strike>hilarious</strike> offensively stereotypical.

* Carbombya is sometimes spelled ''Carbombia'', consistently so in "Two for the Price of One". In the script for "Five Faces of Darkness", it was spelled "Karbomia". The correct spelling, used here, is of course the one that makes the horrible pun most overt.
