The Republic of Uppenja is a titanic, safe nation, renowned for its unlimited-speed roads, frequent executions, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate population of 15.977 billion Uppenjans enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Walddyk. The average income tax rate is 76.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Uppenjan economy, worth a remarkable 2,008 trillion guilders a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 125,717 guilders, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Kids learn to count without the numbers '0' or '1', parking's carefree without parking car fees, in the mighty jungle the lion once again sleeps tonight, and people transfer their assets to bank accounts in Manamana before getting divorced. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Uppenja's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Uppenja is ranked 139,000^th in the world and 111^th in Aesica for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 687.4 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
