The LI Office of Ambassador of UPFS is a massive, socially progressive nation, notable for its sprawling nuclear power plants. Its compassionate, hard-working, intelligent population of 4.61 billion hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, liberal government stops and the rest of society begins, but it is mainly concerned with Social Welfare, although Education and Healthcare are on the agenda. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 47%. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market in Retail.

Saturday morning cartoons feature full frontal nudity, the police have been reduced to using duct tape instead of handcuffs following further cutbacks, mothers are routinely abandoning their children in the name of women's rights, and Siamese Crocodile is one of the most popular forenames in Ambassador of UPFS. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is a serious problem, probably because of the country's utter lack of prisons. Ambassador of UPFS's national animal is the Siamese Crocodile, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Bouleversment.

Ambassador of UPFS is ranked 4th in The Left Interregional and 102,892nd in the world for Most Income Equality, scoring 66 on the Marx-Engels Emancipation Scale.
