The United Kingdom of The Union of The People of Britannia is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by King Charles III with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, public floggings, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.086 billion Brits are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of London. The average income tax rate is 62.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming British economy, worth 244 trillion Pound Sterlings a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 117,412 Pound Sterlings, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The Union of The People of Britannia's free colleges struggle to maintain standards in the face of overwhelming demand, school kids who pretend to drive imaginary cars get a social worker and a police observer assigned to them, things are looking up for patients accidentally prescribed erectile dysfunction medication, and Occam's razor has sliced to pieces any childhood belief in Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Union of The People of Britannia's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Atheism.

The Union of The People of Britannia is ranked 44,483^rd in the world and 1,055^th in The North Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 30.06 flags saluted per person per day.
