The United Kingdom of Isselmere is a behemoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by King Henry V with a fair hand, and notable for its smutty television, daily referendums, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 50.214 billion Isselmerian-Nielanders love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, although Defense, Social Policy, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Daurmont. The average income tax rate is 76.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Isselmeric-Nielandic economy, worth an astonishing 13,987 trillion crowns a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 278,551 crowns, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Barbed wire entanglements and guard towers surround the Daurmont Natural History Museum, internet searches for the inventor of the three-wheeled steam-powered Isselmeric-Nielandic weed picker are way up, visiting dignitaries often end up cuddling in the hot tub with King Henry V, and the military is slashing spending on conventional arms and diverting it to spending on prosthetic arms. Crime is totally unknown. Isselmere's national animal is the blue-backed erne, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Isselmere is ranked 40,209^th in the world and 2^nd in Haven for Nudest, with 215.5 cheeks per square mile.
