The University of UC Irvine is a massive, orderly nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 1.11 billion Irvinians are ruled with an iron fist by the socialist government, which grants its people the freedom to do whatever they like so long as it doesn't involve getting richer than anybody else or challenging the government.

The large, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Irvine. The average income tax rate is 39.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Irvinian economy, worth 11.7 trillion dollars 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 a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Tourism, Cheese Exports, Soda Sales, and Beef-Based Agriculture. 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 10,496 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Tourists from around the world come to visit the country's famous rainforests, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, the mood of raunchy movies is often ruined by the sound of babies crying, and UC Irvine has designated Irvine as its capital city. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. UC Irvine's national animal is the anteater, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

UC Irvine is ranked 247,480^th in the world and 445^th in California Colleges and Universities for Most Patriotic, with 6.29 flags saluted per person per day.
