Urial37

Population7.261 billion

The Republic of Urial37 is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, zero percent divorce rate, and compulsory vegetarianism. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 7.261 billion Urial37ians 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, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 77.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Urial37ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,580 trillion kronor a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 217,651 kronor, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

The weather report is the prisoners' favourite programme, military spending is on the increase, no-one can foil the ambitions of Big Aluminium, and even the nation's brussel sprouts are delicious and nutritious. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Urial37's national animal is the kiwi, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Urial37 is ranked 117,600th in the world and 2,214th in Lazarus for Most Stationary, with 311.7076477292 days.
