The Supreme Land Down Under of UDW is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Supreme Lord Toni Abit with an iron fist, and notable for its deadly medical pandemics, frequent executions, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 3.838 billion UDWians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Administration, Law & Order, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Social Policy and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cranberra. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 66.3%.

The frighteningly efficient UDWian economy, worth 699 trillion Dallers a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Retail, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 182,194 Dallers, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,027,722 per year while the poor average 15,892, a ratio of 64.7 to 1.

The diplomatic corps tends to open negotiations by insulting all the foreigners in the room, god-fearing citizens can be seen in prayer circles around the Big Max impact crater, the nation is wading into dangerous waters, and the navy is chrome-plating its battleships to prevent rust. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. UDW's national animal is the Kagnaroo, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The Dreaming.

UDW is ranked 253,860th in the world and 8,101st in Osiris for Most Stationary, with 17.38139859812 days.
