The Divine Imperium of Holy Nova Britannian is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by The Holy Padishah Emperor with an iron fist, and notable for its smutty television, frequent executions, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 22.084 billion Britannians 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, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Arx Britannia. The average income tax rate is 99.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Nova Britannian economy, worth a remarkable 9,827 trillion Bancors a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Tourism. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 444,995 Bancors, with the richest citizens earning 7.3 times as much as the poorest.

Animal Liberationists are regularly arrested, police officers have nearly cracked a major underage astronomy syndicate, commuters are denied boarding for attempting to bring packed lunches onto trains, and citizens are regularly arrested in queues for 'loitering'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Holy Nova Britannian's national animal is the Grey Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The Imperial Truth.

Holy Nova Britannian is ranked 274,345th in the world and 1st in Arctic Reaches for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -9.9 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
