The Unitary Republic of XXURBANXX is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Prime Censor Anthony with an iron fist, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, unlimited-speed roads, and compulsory military service. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 13.186 billion Urbänie are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.
The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Acenoa. The average income tax rate is 83.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Urbänian economy, worth a remarkable 1,767 trillion Urbanian Léis a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 134,034 Urbanian Léis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Airport users are more worried about radiation than terrorism, citizens can't decide whether to be proud or horrified by the country's colonial history, The Pipe Bomb Makers' Pop-Up Book can be found in preschool libraries, and children are often observed making 'sand angels' in bunkers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. XXURBANXX's national animal is the Urbänian Swift, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Lutheranism.
XXURBANXX is ranked 21,199th in the world and 13th in Roses Without Thorns for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 1,136.88 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
