The Republic of Ulyde is a massive, safe nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, anti-smoking policies, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 1.076 billion Ulydians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Poshin Ner. The average income tax rate is 37.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Ulydian economy, worth 83.1 trillion Yurens a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 77,275 Yurens, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Fake designer clothes are shredded and burnt while many in the world don't have a shirt on their back, hospitals in Ulyde are too busy serving the needs of Carcassonne to see Ulydians, in musicals everybody's a little bit racist, and judicial torture is outsourced overseas. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Ulyde's national animal is the Reindeer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ulyde is ranked 57,133^rd in the world and 193^rd in Carcassonne for Safest, scoring 99.95 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
