The Republic of Userium-Ultima is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Augusta Federi with an even hand, and notable for its ban on automobiles, daily referendums, and parental licensing program. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 15.985 billion Userium-Ultimen 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, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Novum Glaswegis. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 69.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Userium-Ultiman economy, worth a remarkable 2,721 trillion Waus a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 170,225 Waus, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 544,883 per year while the poor average 40,368, a ratio of 13.5 to 1.

Foreign musicians that Augusta Federi dislikes are turned away at the border, scientists recently cloned the long-extinct feather-bellied Fish, nobody knows why the caged Fish sings, and the Small Council has more than a little influence. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Userium-Ultima's national animal is the Fish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Novism.

Userium-Ultima is ranked 34,096^th in the world and 1^st in ecco for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 2,485.12 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
