The Grand Unitary Republic of XXURBANXX is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Martīn Perescu-Dupont IV with an iron fist, and notable for its compulsory military service, sprawling nuclear power plants, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, cynical, cheerful, devout population of 14.47 billion Urbānie are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Acenoa. The average income tax rate is 83.8%.
The frighteningly efficient Urbäni economy, worth a remarkable 1,920 trillion Urbäni Leis a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 132,691 Urbäni Leis, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.
No one can find a leaky faucet in XXURBANXX anymore, expats return home to a government devoid of social and environmental agencies, soldiers who shoot themselves in the foot are regarded as heroes, and old people living in plastic bubbles complain about a new type of social isolation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. XXURBANXX's national animal is the Tāvean Swift, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Lutheranism.
XXURBANXX is ranked 306,153rd in the world and 9th in RWOT for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -12.07 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
