Welcome Ulberny



We welcome The Soviet Socialist Republics of Ulberny (http://www.sunsetrpg.com/economystatistics.php?nation=Ulberny), as the 92nd member nation state in 01 Eastern Roman Empire Region.

The Soviet socialist republics of Ulberny is a massive, safe nation, renowned for its punitive income tax rates. Its hard-nosed, cynical population of 1.632 billion are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it concentrates mainly on Law & Order, although Defence and Education are secondary priorities. The average income tax rate is 100%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Book Publishing, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture industries.
Crime is on the rise as DNA sampling has been all but outlawed, guns are banned, a spate of enforced closures has left 'Government FM' as the nation's only radio station, and the public are free to vote for whomever the government wants in office. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ulberny's national animal is the black quarry bird, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the shrine.
