The Uniocracy of Umbratellus is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Great Archailect Binah with a fair hand, and renowned for its infamous sell-swords, ban on automobiles, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, democratic, cheerful population of 2.041 billion Umbratellans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aeternitatis. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Umbratellan economy, worth 468 trillion energy credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 229,357 energy credits, with the richest citizens earning 7.5 times as much as the poorest.

Games of cops and robbers typically end in at least one fatal shooting, the government's giant servers are often used as a tourist trap, medical experts advise that those claiming to be medical experts are probably fraudsters, and cyclists spend more time unlocking their bicycles than they do cycling. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Umbratellus's national animal is the Old Patrian crow, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Secular Materialism.

Umbratellus is ranked 152,387^th in the world and 13^th in Astral Sea for Largest Timber Woodchipping Industry, scoring 683.75 on the Tasmanian Pulp Environmental Export Index.
