The Great State of Uul is a colossal, socially progressive nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, parental licensing program, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 4.006 billion Uun 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 large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Spirituality, and Education. The average income tax rate is 67.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Uul economy, worth 232 trillion Thalosks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Retail, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Gambling. Average income is 58,125 Thalosks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Theatre audiences often need a telescope to see the stage, the government baselessly accuses foreign dignitaries of being assassins, thousands of children die every day from easily curable illnesses, and children fear compulsory visits to their spiritual advisors more than the dentist. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Uul's national animal is the Jÿk, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Uul is ranked 108,149^th in the world and 1^st in The Distant Shores for Most Advanced Law Enforcement, scoring 2,389.4 on the Orwell Orderliness Index.
