The Protectorate of Uthoaea is a very large, socially progressive nation, renowned for its compulsory military service. The democratic population of 201 million Uthoaeans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 28.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Uthoaean economy, worth 8.76 trillion Archinian Coironins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Tourism, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 43,559 Archinian Coironins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Uthoaea's national animal is the Whale, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Uthoaea is ranked 210,379^th in the world and 2^nd in Deep State Nine for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 30.58 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
