The People's Socialist Republic of Urgabah is a gargantuan, safe nation, notable for its daily referendums, national health service, and hatred of cheese. The compassionate, cheerful population of 41.67 billion Urgabahians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Environment, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cornucopia. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Urgabahian economy, worth an astonishing 15,582 trillion Uollars a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is an amazing 373,953 Uollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Town nameplates frequently raise giggles from passing tourists, cigarettes are dead-cheap, it is still not known if the commander in chief outranks the supreme commander, and sociologists can charge whatever fee they like as the nation tries to find itself. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Urgabah's national animal is the Monitor Lizard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Urgabah is ranked 287,492nd in the world and 3,876th in the West Pacific for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring -34.81 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
