The Imperium of New Uchoria is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by the Duce with an iron fist, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, prohibition of alcohol, and anti-smoking policies. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 3.603 billion Uchorians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rivol. The average income tax rate is 86.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming New Uchorian economy, worth 350 trillion Drochets a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 97,155 Drochets, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Translators have been hired to deal with the varying regional accents during national political debates, a government program is underway to revitalize New Uchoria's beaches, tombstones are ten feet high to accommodate the names of inhabitants, and drug lords often avoid prison time by teaching "chemistry" classes to underprivileged youth. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Uchoria's national animal is the Uchorian Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

New Uchoria is ranked 7,412^th in the world and 15^th in Concord for Safest, scoring 125.15 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
