The Observation of UPC is not Fast 10 is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its ban on automobiles, enslaved workforce, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 6.066 billion UPC is not Fast 10ians 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 68.9%.

The frighteningly efficient UPC is not Fast 10ian economy, worth 713 trillion Cards a year, is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Woodchip Exports, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common.

Sneezing pedestrians are grabbed by alley-lurking doctors, citizens must have a license to operate a computer, citizens insist that there's no law against standing downwind when marijuana crops are burned off, and prodigal children celebrate as charitable bequests plummet. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. UPC is not Fast 10's national animal is the Raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
