The Empire of United Technia is a huge, efficient nation, notable for its rum-swilling pirates, compulsory military service, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed population of 725 million United Technians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, moralistic, socially-minded government prioritizes Defense, with Industry, Law & Order, and Education also on the agenda, while International Aid and Spirituality aren't funded at all. The average income tax rate is 30.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong United Technian economy, worth 61.9 trillion Techillars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 85,368 Techillars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens try to pass off bottlecaps they found in their backyards as historical artifacts, the nation's industries are scrambling to switch to biodegradable plastics, swarms of present-laden delivery drones blot out the sun before major holidays, and toddler groups have taken over local libraries. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. United Technia's national animal is the Technian Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

United Technia is ranked 96,889^th in the world and 136^th in Morpheus for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 50.5 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
