The United Yorkist Republic of North Gloucesterstan is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by King Melchett Darling-Blackadder XII with an even hand, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, keen interest in outer space, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 19.618 billion North Gloucesterstan Residents have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The medium-sized, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Industry, and Administration are also considered important, while International Aid and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of North Gloucester City. The average income tax rate is 96.0%.
The frighteningly efficient North Gloucesterstanian economy, worth a remarkable 6,833 trillion NG Money Coins 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, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. 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 348,351 NG Money Coins, with the richest citizens earning 5.2 times as much as the poorest.
A punitive tax has been placed on harmful emissions, a politician who is photographed pulling a funny face while eating can say goodbye to their credibility, political talk shows often have children as guests whenever they need commentary on world religions, and most believe it doesn't hurt to embrace free trade. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. North Gloucesterstan's national animal is the Cheese Goblin, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Cheese Rolling.
North Gloucesterstan is ranked 148,828th in the world and 1st in North Gloucesterstan for Most Stationary, with 166.63470585372 days.
