The Community of URST is a tiny, safe nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 8 million URSTians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 59.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The fair URSTian economy, worth 212 billion URSTS a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Information Technology, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 26,437 URSTS, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Idyllic countryside scenes see border collies herding sixty-ton dinosaurs, the Violetist community celebrates bombshells being dropped on URST, selling your granddad's clothes requires an incredible amount of paperwork, and millions of URSTians are excellent swimmers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. URST's national animal is the Bingo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

URST is ranked 174,267^th in the world and 353^rd in The Communist Bloc for Least Corrupt Governments, with 92.86 percentage of bribes refused.
