OverviewPoliciesPeopleGovernmentEconomyRankTrendCards

The Republic of Urial85 is a colossal, cultured nation, renowned for its ban on automobiles, triple-decker prams, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 7.262 billion Urial85ians 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 Law & Order, Administration, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 85.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Urial85ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,987 trillion baht a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Furniture Restoration. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 273,703 baht, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Friendly fire incidents usually result in severe burns, lifeguards are more concerned with watching for sharks than struggling swimmers, blind students are at a disadvantage now that test papers printed in braille have been discontinued, and the family summer vacation has become a thing of the past following the introduction of the year-round school year. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Urial85's national animal is the turtle, which can occasionally be seen avoiding garbage in the nation's murky oceans.

Urial85 is ranked 117,661st in the world and 2,231st in Lazarus for Most Stationary, with 311.70127967772 days.
