The Republic of Urial82 is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, public floggings, and disturbing lack of elderly people. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 7.219 billion Urial82ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 67.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Urial82ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,652 trillion marks a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 228,866 marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.4 times as much as the poorest.

The dartboard at the Urial82ian Cancer Research Charity bears a picture of Leader's face, the nation's laws on image rights are amongst the strictest in the world, Leader has no checks and balances after the upper house was abolished, and tombstones are ten feet high to accommodate the names of inhabitants. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Urial82's national animal is the swan, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Urial82 is ranked 117,659th in the world and 2,228th in Lazarus for Most Stationary, with 311.7017796774 days.
