The Constitutional Monarchy of United Kingdom Of Balts is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Marcus I with a fair hand, and remarkable for its public floggings, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 895 million United Kingdom Of Baltsians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Valley. The average income tax rate is 55.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient United Kingdom Of Baltsian economy, worth 106 trillion Goaunts a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 119,524 Goaunts, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The family of Marcus I bite their thumbs at paparazzi intrusions, foreign powers often deal with problems that United Kingdom Of Balts can't handle, for 25 Goaunts tourists can gawk at the site of national tragedy, and residents of houses built on a foundation of wishful thinking are prone to an odd sinking feeling. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. United Kingdom Of Balts's national animal is the Goat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

United Kingdom Of Balts is ranked 334,537th in the world and 4,988th in the South Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 0.46 flags saluted per person per day.
