The Watchfires of ULSR is a gargantuan, safe nation, notable for its frequent executions, digital currency, and national health service. The hard-working population of 23.649 billion ULSRians 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 large, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 42.8%.

The powerhouse ULSRian economy, worth a remarkable 1,387 trillion $$s a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration, Pizza Delivery, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 58,669 $$s, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

The ULSRian Intelligence Agency has put 'Project Quantum Refrigerator' on hold indefinitely, the nation's diplomatic missives are now delivered via sniper rifle, it can be a real jungle in a modern courtroom, and soldiers on first dates introduce themselves only by their ranks and serial numbers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. ULSR's national animal is the ^-^, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

ULSR is ranked 77,352^nd in the world and 1^st in The Union of Liberal Socialist Republics for Lowest Crime Rates, with 68.93 law-abiding acts per hour.
