The Federation of Ukonvesi Lake is a massive, genial nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, avowedly heterosexual populace, and infamous sell-swords. The cynical population of 1.163 billion Ukonvesi Lakeans 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 large, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 53.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Ukonvesi Lakean economy, worth 81.2 trillion gambles a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 69,856 gambles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Babies are a small but significant export, every day's an auto-de-fé day, advertisements read like science journal articles complete with extensive references, and the government regularly hires contractors to construct high rise apartments. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ukonvesi Lake's national animal is the gamble, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Ukonvesi Lake is ranked 82,830th in the world and 171st in Lakes in Finland for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 1,083.71 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
