The United Kingdom of Roger Hornsby is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, daily referendums, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 10.909 billion Roger Hornsbyians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 52.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Roger Hornsbyian economy, worth a remarkable 1,406 trillion Yen a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 128,941 Yen, with the richest citizens earning 9.3 times as much as the poorest.

Teachers regularly paddle unruly students, military barracks resemble five-star hotels, Leader's exquisite office door is replaced monthly due to angry petitioners, and graffiti artists spend lengthy periods of time in jail. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Roger Hornsby's national animal is the Vulture, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Roger Hornsby is ranked 32,889^th in the world and 850^th in the Rejected Realms for Lowest Crime Rates, with 81.07 law-abiding acts per hour.
