The Republic of Ukleya is a very large, genial nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 403 million Ukleyans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Æiræhik. The average income tax rate is 66.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Ukleyan economy, worth 14.5 trillion Ukleyan Czizes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Arms Manufacturing, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 35,915 Ukleyan Czizes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government is more interested in identifying problems than fixing them, the Violetist community celebrates bombshells being dropped on Ukleya, the tragedy of the commons is being tested nationwide but everyone says it's somebody else's problem, and visions of giant pink Cats are a common side effect after Ukleyans eat their meals. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ukleya's national animal is the Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ukleya is ranked 215,643rd in the world and 22nd in Mikrucka Valley and other regions for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -4.56 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
