The Republic of Uckraine is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Beckett Kamp with an iron fist, and notable for its avowedly heterosexual populace, public floggings, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 3.823 billion Uckraineans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Piginia. The average income tax rate is 75.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Uckrainean economy, worth 571 trillion Ucks a year, is quite specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Gambling, Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 149,524 Ucks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Old spellbooks are only useful as door-stops or toilet roll substitute, people seem disproportionately distraught when told a museum has a phones-off policy, commuters and their desktops both bemoan their hard drives, and healthcare workers are flummoxed over the spike in foreign tourists with sudden-onset heart disease. Crime is moderate, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Uckraine's national animal is the Pig, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Atheism.

Uckraine is ranked 24,864^th in the world and 273^rd in Europe for Highest Average Incomes, with 149,524.03 Standard Monetary Units.
