The Grand Duchy of Untkim is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Grand Duchess Théa XII Nasato with an iron fist, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and compulsory vegetarianism. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 15.091 billion Untkimians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ksanakra. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 54.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Untkimian economy, worth a remarkable 1,214 trillion roths a year, is quite specialized and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Basket Weaving, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is 80,453 roths, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 288,339 per year while the poor average 16,099, a ratio of 17.9 to 1.

National parks have long lines of different gender-specific 'Porta-Pottys', the government expresses surprisingly intense opinions on the use of whip pans, the government considers it a sacred duty to video bikini-clad beach swimmers, and the cruise missile launchers on the field hospital roof are purely deterrent in purpose. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Untkim's national animal is the rabbit, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is the Church of Untkim.

Untkim is ranked 59,338th in the world and 1st in The Eternal Order for Most Stationary, with 770.64154151132 days.
