The Constitutional Monarchy of Ulm 77 is a massive, efficient nation, renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, keen interest in outer space, and smutty television. The cynical, devout population of 1.902 billion Ulm 77ians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 74.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ulm 77ian economy, worth 238 trillion guilders a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 125,393 guilders, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

The governments pockets have been emptied filling useless garages, those who sing the national anthem off-key have the key thrown away, there's no escape from the rule of law... or police brutality, and Animal Liberationists are regularly arrested. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ulm 77's national animal is the cow, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ulm 77 is ranked 317,591^st in the world and 422^nd in Swabian autonomous region for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -11.09 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
