The Fiefdom of Upson Downs is a titanic, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 10.506 billion Upson Downsians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Defense, with Healthcare, Welfare, and Administration also on the agenda, while International Aid and Spirituality are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.8%.

The strong Upson Downsian economy, worth 442 trillion Pounds a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Retail, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 42,091 Pounds, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 271,285 per year while the poor average 2,638, a ratio of 102 to 1.

Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Upson Downs's national animal is the Dog, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Upson Downs is ranked 254,322nd in the world and 6th in The Kingdom of the Wolves for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -6.32 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
