The Colony of Ubarin is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service and digital currency. The hard-working population of 1.5 billion Ubarinians 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 Administration, Education, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 15.7%.

The strong Ubarinian economy, worth 90.0 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Trout Farming, and Information Technology. Average income is 59,983 dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 173,268 per year while the poor average 16,473, a ratio of 10.5 to 1.

Nobody brings rolls of coins to the laundromat anymore, ambulances aren't allowed to overtake hearses, fresh food is a thing of the past due to onerous testing standards, and all government facilities are built in the subterranean citadel of Ubarin City. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ubarin's national animal is the unicorn.

Ubarin is ranked 93,699^th in the world and 3,738^th in Lazarus for Highest Food Quality, scoring 24.3 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
