The Democratic Republic of Ubeland is a very large, safe nation, notable for its compulsory military service, frequent executions, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 180 million Ubelandians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government prioritizes Administration, although Welfare, Healthcare, and Education are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. The average income tax rate is 49.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Ubelandian economy, worth 13.8 trillion pesos a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 76,856 pesos, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Charged suspects often have to wait years before the courts have room to judge their trial, elderly citizens regularly buy posh multimillion-peso mansions, urban parents tell their children that the family car went to a farm upstate, and would-be emigrants are told "abandon all hope all ye who would exit here". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ubeland's national animal is the penguin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Ubeland is ranked 26,559^th in the world and 961^st in The North Pacific for Safest, scoring 110.79 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
