The Matriarchy of Uioea is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by John Adams Stephens with an iron fist, and renowned for its burgeoning sheep population. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 16.659 billion Uioeans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The tiny, well-organized government is dominated by the Department of Defense, although Welfare, Administration, and Law & Order are also considered important, while International Aid and Social Policy aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pike's Peak. The average income tax rate is 8.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Uioean economy, worth 640 trillion pesos a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Trout Farming, and Book Publishing. Average income is 38,388 pesos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Ranchers are adept at mimicking wolf attacks, a ban on unsolicited cold calling in all forms is in effect, the nation is ravaged by daily union strikes, and all mothers are allowed six months fully-paid maternity leave. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Uioea's national animal is the sheep, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is The Temple Gaoism.

Uioea is ranked 199,410^th in the world and 1^st in North Pole Islands for Most Developed, scoring 52.91 on the Human Development Index.
