The Reaper of UPC

“Woe to Those Who Cross My Shadow.”

The Reaper of UPC is a mammoth, genial nation, ruled by Darrow with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, compulsory vegetarianism, and daily referendums. The compassionate population of 8.833 billion Radiants are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Urithiru. The average income tax rate is 96.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Radiant economy, worth a remarkable 1,075 trillion Diamond Broams a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry. Average income is an impressive 121,784 Diamond Broams, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Tax-payers are funding ever more extravagant movie projects, graffiti graces every city's streets, ambitious "businessmen" use their children to sell and advertise their products, and posters on 'Radiant Values' advise against being proud of UPC. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. UPC's national animal is the Windspren, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is the Church of Honor.

UPC is ranked 305,999^th in the world and 1,428^th in Europeia for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector, scoring -21.02 on the Charon Conveyancy Index.
