The Pharao of Userkaf is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Pharao Userkaf with an even hand, and renowned for its enslaved workforce, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless, devout population of 27.968 billion Userkafians are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.
The minute, pro-business government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Industry, Spirituality, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ineb-hedj. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.4%.
The frighteningly efficient Userkafian economy, worth a remarkable 4,935 trillion ras a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Gambling, and Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 176,485 ras, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 556,270 per year while the poor average 42,804, a ratio of 13.0 to 1.
An enormous health awareness programme is underway, the new hit series "Userkaf's Got Trauma" has corporate executives fleeing the country, police officers are seen patrolling the streets armed with satellite-guided truncheons, and tightly packed choir-boys sing the god-given joys of heterosexuality on public transport. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Userkaf's national animal is the Isis, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Userkaf is ranked 283,819th in the world and 10,820th in Balder for Safest, scoring 5.7 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
