The Empire of Uranea is a large, safe nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, frequent executions, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 80 million Uraneans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 9.3%.

The strong Uranean economy, worth 5.05 trillion Euros a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 63,131 Euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements, the government is more interested in identifying problems than fixing them, the automotive industry soaks up huge government handouts, and the death penalty has been reintroduced. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control. Uranea's national animal is the Otter, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Uranea is ranked 190,240^th in the world and 159^th in Wintreath for Most Primitive, scoring -69.64 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
