The Republic of RUBP is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by mtDNA with an iron fist, and remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, vat-grown people, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, cynical population of 3.768 billion RUBPians 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 large, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of mitochondrial matrix. The average income tax rate is 76.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse RUBPian economy, worth 386 trillion ATPS a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 102,487 ATPS, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

State media features lively debates such as whether pineapple on pizza is an acceptable topping, every citizen must submit to DNA testing to be eliminated from police inquiries, all guns must be registered, and major internet servers have acquired citizenship. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. RUBP's national animal is the mitochondrion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

RUBP is ranked 274,878th in the world and 947th in The Communist Bloc for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -10.77 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
