The Fiefdom of Ulm 182 is a massive, genial nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, humorless, devout population of 1.968 billion Ulm 182ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 73.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ulm 182ian economy, worth 245 trillion rubles a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 124,540 rubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

The government tries not to listen to the people unless it absolutely has to, the nation frequently scolds its subject territories for staying up past bedtime, tampons are used as cheap fishing bobbers, and childhood friends of Leader are living it large abroad at the taxpayers' expense. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ulm 182's national animal is the tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ulm 182 is ranked 49,798^th in the world and 346^th in Swabian autonomous region for Most Developed, scoring 77.64 on the Human Development Index.
