The Republic of Yes Britannia is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, state-planned economy, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, devout population of 1.974 billion Yes Britannians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government prioritizes Defense, with Social Policy, Healthcare, and Administration also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 36.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Yes Britannian economy, worth 111 trillion florins 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 a large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, and Soda Sales. 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 56,700 florins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Freighter lifeboats have been replaced by state of the art marker buoys so divers can recover the cargo after they sink, kilts and cassocks are viewed with suspicion, increasing inclusiveness is a sign of the times, and all industry is owned and run by the government. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Yes Britannia's national animal is the giraffe, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Yes Britannia is ranked 48,782nd in the world and 1,137th in the Rejected Realms for Safest, scoring 103.34 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
