The Swabian Autonomous Zone of Ulm 6 is a massive, orderly nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, ubiquitous missile silos, and compulsory military service. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 2.14 billion Ulm 6ians 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, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Svetlovodsk. The average income tax rate is 75.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ulm 6ian economy, worth 260 trillion Ducats a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 121,789 Ducats, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

A large concrete wall is being built around the country's borders, tampons are used as cheap fishing bobbers, it is illegal to liberate slaves, and the Violetist community celebrates bombshells being dropped on Ulm 6. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ulm 6's national animal is the Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ulm 6 is ranked 40,418^th in the world and 136^th in Swabian autonomous region for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 2,254.22 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
