The Community of B U is a tiny, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion. The hard-working population of 9 million Britons 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 16.1%.
The strong British economy, worth 460 billion Sterls a year, is led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Uranium Mining, and Trout Farming. Average income is 51,152 Sterls, with the richest citizens earning 6.4 times as much as the poorest.
The government frequently panders to parents with boutique tax credits, commercial breaks often lead to nervous breakdowns, the well-to-do in The Western Isles are never on time for important appointments, and Jennifer Government is a bestseller. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. B U's national animal is the None, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
B U is ranked 122,045th in the world and 131st in The Western Isles for Most Cultured, scoring 65 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
