The Republic of Urial77 is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, strictly enforced bedtime, and avowedly heterosexual populace. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 7.229 billion Urial77ians 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 medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 70.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Urial77ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,737 trillion dollars 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, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. 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 240,355 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Even the nation's brussel sprouts are delicious and nutritious, it is mandatory to learn evolution in schools, it's been a banner year for local vexillology, and the new Refuse Hills housing development is under construction. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Urial77's national animal is the parrot, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Urial77 is ranked 117,640th in the world and 2,088th in Balder for Most Stationary, with 311.702231066 days.
