A region of [[Klatch]] where the people are thought of as being slow-witted, dim and hard of thinking. Just as Americans tell "stupid" jokes about the Poles, the French tell them about the Belgians and the British have a thing about the Irish, no doubt Ur occupies the same position for Klatchians.

[[Lord Vetinari]], when using the [[Gulli, Gulli and Beti]] identity, stated that Ur had a university (where else do you think Al learned what a donkey looks like?). However, this may only have been a ruse, when [[Fred Colon]] mentioned that the [[Unseen University]] had a [[Magic Carpet|magic carpet]] (He called it simply ''the University'').

When Fred Colon was asked where he came from, he began with the time-gaining word "Er...". The Klatchians thought [[Fred Colon]] was from Ur, which allayed their suspicions and ruled out his being an Ankhian spy, as no spy could possibly be that stupid.
