The Kingdom of Uenoyama is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its punitive income tax rates and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 1.341 billion Uenoyamas enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Spirituality. The average income tax rate is 67.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Uenoyaman economy, worth 48.9 trillion Ens a year, is highly specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Automobile Manufacturing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 36,462 Ens, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Criminals rejoice in the streets as the entire police force is sent away on a training retreat, Leader has just been declared ruler of Uenoyama in an international press conference, workers of "fairweather faith" claim six months of paid leave for holy days per year, and a major religion has been named as Uenoyama's national religion. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Uenoyama's national animal is the Superb Lyrebird, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Uenoyama is ranked 62,953^rd in the world and 3,069^th in The North Pacific for Most Valuable International Artwork, with 1.54 Bank.
