The Bread Loving Folk of Under Upper Antartica is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Bread Mann with an even hand, and remarkable for its ritual sacrifices, smutty television, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 11.662 billion Under Upper Antarticans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Breadtown. The average income tax rate is 77.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Under Upper Antartican economy, worth a remarkable 3,187 trillion People a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Retail, Furniture Restoration, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 273,337 People, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government runs a surplus by selling its citizens, bris parties are all the rage, officials pull all-nighters to check immigrants for potential links to terrorists, and most barbers are also surgeons. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Under Upper Antartica's national animal is the Narwhale, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Toast.

Under Upper Antartica is ranked 4,171st in the world and 96th in The East Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 184 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
