The Fragments of Untecna is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Irulan Atreides with an iron fist, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, pith helmet sales, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 8.3 billion Untecnans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Law & Order, and Administration also on the agenda, while International Aid and Spirituality are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Archos. The average income tax rate is 82.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Untecnan economy, worth a remarkable 3,357 trillion Solaris 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, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, 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 404,462 Solaris, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Aggravated apostrophe abusers are admonished and assaulted, the nationalistic national anthem inspires citizens to literally spit at foreigners, The Very Hungry Caterpillar has been banned for advocating gluttony, and the government is promoting multicultural values with the new 'Just Be Nice, OK?' initiative. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Untecna's national animal is the Pleiai jackal, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Crymenathea.

Untecna is ranked 4,117th in the world and 14th in Institute of Cellulose for Lowest Crime Rates, with 121.33 law-abiding acts per hour.
