The Republic of Urial65 is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, keen interest in outer space, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 9.128 billion Urial65ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 69.2%.
The frighteningly efficient Urial65ian economy, worth a remarkable 2,353 trillion lire 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, fairly 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 257,866 lire, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.
Drug deals return to the streets as legions of undercover officers stalk the dark web, the nation has always been at war with Bigtopia, trails to natural wonders are littered with trash from reality film crews, and glittering new sports stadiums adorn every city and town. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Urial65's national animal is the parrot, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.
Urial65 is ranked 345,624th in the world and 16,571st in Balder for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -24.53 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
