The Principality of Upper Drelece is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Klemens Pohl with an even hand, and notable for its frequent executions, sprawling nuclear power plants, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, devout population of 5.177 billion Upper Dreleceans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government prioritizes Healthcare, with Education, Defense, and Law & Order also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kuhnsburg. The average income tax rate is 57.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Upper Drelecean economy, worth 205 trillion Leces a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Cheese Exports, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 39,782 Leces, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Wanting a better life for your child is prohibited by a clause in the criminal code, the police turn a blind eye to desecration if it's done in the name of religion or protest, school uniforms are compulsory, and bars are packed at all hours. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Upper Drelece's national animal is the Drelecian Deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Protestantism.

Upper Drelece is ranked 145,431^st in the world and 154^th in KAISERREICH for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 98.62 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
