The Republic of Ur Alderney is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Father Deficiena with an iron fist, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, complete lack of prisons, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 11.343 billion Ur Alderneyians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Environment, and Law & Order are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aldur Town. The average income tax rate is 59.9%.

The thriving Ur Alderneyian economy, worth a remarkable 1,042 trillion Urpounds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 91,875 Urpounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

Passwords to nuclear codes must now contain upper and lower case characters, the dictionary is a common first book for children, citizens often ask "what has information technology ever done for us?", and windows in Aldur Town don't have much of a view. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ur Alderney's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is English Muffinism.

Ur Alderney is ranked 19,378^th in the world and 49^th in The Dudlands for Largest Black Market, with 179 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
