The Republic of Uzur is a huge, socially progressive nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 431 million uzurishes enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of La Pobla Verda. The average income tax rate is 47.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong uzuric economy, worth 28.2 trillion Rulas a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Cheese Exports, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 65,355 Rulas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Abattoirs are struggling with the directive to 'wait until the animal dies of a ripe old age', engaged partners detail their fiancés' private lives in detail to prurient bureaucrats, the official Uzuric Phrase Book weighs as much as a small child, and corporate lawyers are joyfully combing through the new tax code for any new loopholes for their clients. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Uzur's national animal is the Tortoise, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Uzur is ranked 144,214^th in the world and 3,077^th in The North Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 542.78 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
