The Stewardship of Ur Atlantis is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Gob Lob Pb with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, unlimited-speed roads, and aversion to nipples. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 11.685 billion Ur Atlantisians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed, including voting. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jupitera. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 19.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Ur Atlantisian economy, worth 900 trillion Fins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Woodchip Exports, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is notable. Average income is 77,052 Fins, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 270,358 per year while the poor average 15,930, a ratio of 17.0 to 1.

Leather-clad individuals can be seen walking their slaves in public parks, the government will gladly pay you next Tuesday for a hamburger today, Gob Lob Pb has a wardrobe full of fake designer suits, and the slowest students feel vaguely targeted by their Mendelian Inheritance coursework. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Ur Atlantis's national animal is the Narwhale, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways, and its national religion is Kilo.

Ur Atlantis is ranked 58,685^th in the world and 2^nd in Atlantean Stewardship for Most Developed, scoring 74.85 on the Human Development Index.
