The Corrupted Union of United Government Of Corruption is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by President John William Southern with an iron fist, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, frequent executions, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 6.152 billion UGC'S 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Grand Union. The average income tax rate is 74.7%.

The frighteningly efficient a UGC economy, worth 924 trillion Units a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 150,280 Units, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

The nation's student exchange programs are something of a one way street, A UGC watches are often the only thing to survive a disaster intact, the practice of capital punishment proves divisive, and the nation's soldiers sleep four to a bed in order to use space economically. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. United Government Of Corruption's national animal is the UGC Buffalo, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The Holy Tree Stump.

United Government Of Corruption is ranked 30,694^th in the world and 1,094^th in The North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 82.3 law-abiding acts per hour.
