The Federatsiya of Ursaaa is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Ivan Mallory with an iron fist, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, flagrant waste-dumping, and parental licensing program. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 3.303 billion Ursans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rudeya. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 68.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Ursaaan economy, worth 650 trillion Ursan chezzes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 196,986 Ursan chezzes, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 983,462 per year while the poor average 22,214, a ratio of 44.3 to 1.

Pre-schoolers who draw stick figures of their favorite celebrities are sued for infringing image rights, inheritance tax has recently been abolished, economics is a shrinking field, and tourist operators promise visitors tours of live burning shipwrecks and plane crash sites. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ursaaa's national animal is the for example nothing, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Religion-is-quite-silly.

Ursaaa is ranked 328,352^nd in the world and 218^th in Eladria for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -15.07 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
