The Republic of Urial46 is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its parental licensing program, enslaved workforce, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 7.346 billion Urial46ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 76.1%.
The frighteningly efficient Urial46ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,580 trillion pounds a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Furniture Restoration, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 215,111 pounds, with the richest citizens earning 7.3 times as much as the poorest.
Cheese has become the new icon of political dissent, roads are often attended by round-the-clock construction crews, people who get diabetes can sue donut manufacturers, and trick-or-treaters and circus clowns have been arrested under suspicion of being renegade vigilantes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Urial46's national animal is the horse, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Urial46 is ranked 14,216th in the world and 912th in Balder for Lowest Crime Rates, with 95.05 law-abiding acts per hour.
