The Slave Empire of Ulkar is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Bologog Gro-Nolob with an iron fist, and renowned for its otherworldly petting zoo, keen interest in outer space, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 13.725 billion Ulkarians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes 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 71.7%.
The frighteningly efficient Ulkarian economy, worth a remarkable 3,978 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, Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Automobile Manufacturing. 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 289,871 Khacks, with the richest citizens earning 9.1 times as much as the poorest.
Professionals are ready to retire by the time they receive permission to use their credentials, cremation is compulsory for the deceased, foreigners must sell an arm and a leg to afford surgery in Ulkar, and it is illegal to make racist remarks in public. 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 30,468th in the world and 1,931st in Osiris for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 6,320.42 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
