Blocky Urcea

The Kingdom of Blocky Urcea is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, avowedly heterosexual populace, and frequent executions. The compassionate, hard-working, devout population of 668 million Blocky Urceans are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Spirituality, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 44.1%.

The thriving Blocky Urcean economy, worth 50.2 trillion Talers a year, is dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 75,122 Talers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.7 times as much as the poorest.

Extreme hiring regulations mean a job in Blocky Urcea is often a lifetime appointment, the studies of art and philosophy are banned, the Holy Office of the Inquisition is the highest court in the land, and small children are learning a lot of new words from a teacher with Tourette Syndrome. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Blocky Urcea's national animal is the Yellow Labrador, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Blocky Urcea is ranked 156,145th in the world and 49th in Rainbow Society for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 1,382.96 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
