The Slave Empire of Ulkar is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Bologog Gro-Nolob with an iron fist, and remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, vat-grown people, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 7.048 billion Ulkarians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Law & Order, Administration, and Industry are also considered important, while Welfare and Environment aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cul. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 56.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Ulkarian economy, worth a remarkable 1,724 trillion Khacks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 244,738 Khacks, with the richest citizens earning 8.4 times as much as the poorest.

The nation has declared war on all passing comets, women who display their ankles are shunned by society, the government has officially clarified that "wee on your hands to save time" does not count as proper hygiene, and the state has declared war on the environment and environmentalists by association. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ulkar's national animal is the Vulcher, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Ulkar is ranked 1,791^st in the world and 15^th in Psychotic Dictatorships for Largest Black Market, with 1,607 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
