The Empire of Uth is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Emperor Caesar Augustus  with an iron fist, and remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 4.841 billion Uthians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Atlantis. The average income tax rate is 85.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Uthian economy, worth 828 trillion Denariis a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 171,086 Denariis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Camera crews have accompanied conscripted dancers to film 'Marching On Ice', the alien invasion siren sounds eerily like a UFO, the nation is wading into dangerous waters, and civil servants refuse to enforce government regulations for fear of wider economic impact. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Uth's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Uth is ranked 10,178^th in the world and 9^th in Kantrias for Most Developed, scoring 90.47 on the Human Development Index.
