The Anarchic Utopia of Upper Northwest Corner is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Green Leader with a fair hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, unlimited-speed roads, and infamous sell-swords. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 9.213 billion Unwexians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, corrupt, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Industry, with Administration also on the agenda, while Law & Order and Environment aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Out of Control. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Unwexian economy, worth a remarkable 1,604 trillion green nuggets a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, and Soda Sales. Average income is an impressive 174,147 green nuggets, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,252,740 per year while the poor average 7,797, a ratio of 160 to 1.

Students select colleges based on wi-fi quality, new drivers are driving the nation into a budget hole, teens graduate from front of house retail to the frontlines of war, and foreign ambassadors closely guard their culinary secrets. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Upper Northwest Corner's national animal is the green dragon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Apatheism.

Upper Northwest Corner is ranked 43,838th in the world and 4th in XS IV for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 199.71 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
