The Rogue Nation of Ubiquia is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by All Mighty with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, otherworldly petting zoo, and vat-grown people. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 5.439 billion Ubiquians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 37.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ubiquian economy, worth a remarkable 1,280 trillion Klonfs a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 235,337 Klonfs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

The nation's politicians are acknowledged as the most polite in the region to the dismay of comedians everywhere, it's no longer mandatory for armless amputees to own ironic side-arms, town welcome signs list corporate sponsors, and all the playground's a stage for Ubiquian schoolchildren. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ubiquia's national animal is the Raven, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Ubiquia is ranked 51,327th in the world and 56th in The Order of the Grey Wardens for Largest Basket Weaving Sector, scoring 4,668.7 on the Hickory Productivity Index.
