The United Kingdom of Friman Uppetowns is a colossal, safe nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape. The hard-nosed population of 7.448 billion Friman Uppetownsians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 35.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Friman Uppetownsian economy, worth 190 trillion rubles a year, is led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Furniture Restoration, and Cheese Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 25,612 rubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Surveillance cameras are banned, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, the nationalised Arms Manufacturing Industry is not interested in making weapons, and the military perceives nations hit by natural disasters as "easy pickings". Crime is well under control, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Friman Uppetowns's national animal is the turtle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Friman Uppetowns is ranked 238,172^nd in the world and 2^nd in Northwood for Most Efficient Economies, scoring 27.5 on the Krugman-Greenspan Business Outlook Index.
