The Feudal Empire of Nova Escocia britanica is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Yurik I with an iron fist, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, zero percent divorce rate, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 1.728 billion Plebes 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tsargrad. The average income tax rate is 73.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Nova Escocia britanican economy, worth 278 trillion Novum francs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 161,270 Novum francs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

The running costs of homeless shelters are so high that it would be cheaper to buy houses for the homeless, the sound of wooden legs echo throughout Nova Escocia britanica after the recent introduction of the Foot Tax, radio stations offer prizes to callers who can guess this month's most endangered species, and companies are literally blowing their competition out of the water. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nova Escocia britanica's national animal is the Camelo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Catholichismu Orthodoxus.

Nova Escocia britanica is ranked 20,409th in the world and 234th in Europe for Highest Average Incomes, with 161,270.27 Standard Monetary Units.
