The Commonwealth of The Scarborough Administration is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Albert Davis - Earl of Humber with an even hand, and renowned for its smutty television, complete lack of prisons, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 5.075 billion Scarborians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Humber. The average income tax rate is 95.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Scarborian economy, worth 690 trillion Scarborough Shillings a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 136,082 Scarborough Shillings, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The media seems excessively interested in what Albert Davis - Earl of Humber is wearing this season, the nation has gained millions of new citizens overnight, standard-issue infantry rifles now have carnations instead of bayonets, and digital novelty coins make for surprising vanguards of the revolution. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Scarborough Administration's national animal is the Seagull, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Anglicanism.

The Scarborough Administration is ranked 6,029th in the world and 237th in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 14,004.27 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
