The Swabian Autonomous Zone of Ulm 10 is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its disturbing lack of elderly people, avowedly heterosexual populace, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 2.235 billion Ulm 10ians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Alezov. The average income tax rate is 73.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ulm 10ian economy, worth 342 trillion Ducats 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 black market in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, Information Technology, 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 an impressive 153,253 Ducats, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Renewable energy projects have ground to a halt, teams of painters are converting road signs from horse lengths to kilometers, signs at the border tell international drivers where they can put their cars, and little children cry as their rainbow drawings are seized by the Straight-Thought Police. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ulm 10's national animal is the Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ulm 10 is ranked 274,125^th in the world and 214^th in Swabian autonomous region for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring -8.09 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
