The Sixth Hellhole of Uptisd is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Richard Potato with an iron fist, and remarkable for its triple-decker prams, enslaved workforce, and complete lack of public education. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 9.729 billion Pissers 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 prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Spirituality, and Industry also on the agenda, while Environment and Education receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Trumpsburg. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 57.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Uptisdian economy, worth a remarkable 1,834 trillion Hitler particles a year, is quite specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 188,601 Hitler particles, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,118,569 per year while the poor average 14,637, a ratio of 76.4 to 1.

Chest pains are considered part of the dining experience in Uptisdian restaurants, the annual Adult Film Awards have a category for most titillating aftershave advert, most foreigners can't name the leader of Uptisd, and asthmatics can now suffer the effects of polluting chimneys from further away than ever before. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force. Uptisd's national animal is the Monster Mosquito, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Potatoism.

Uptisd is ranked 24,870th in the world and 1st in Non Aligned Territories Office for Most Authoritarian, with 2,716.59 milliStalins.
