The Commonwealth of UGBK is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Martin with a fair hand, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, otherworldly petting zoo, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 9.287 billion Brits hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, corrupt, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Liverpool. The average income tax rate is 83.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient British economy, worth a remarkable 5,171 trillion Pounds 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Tourism, Information Technology, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. 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 a breathtaking 556,806 Pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation threatens sanctions on islands only visible at low tide, international collectors know that a grease-stain on a work of art probably means it's passed through UGBK, citizens recently voted in favour of declaring bubblewrap an 'abomination of nature', and politicians tend to jump ship to whichever party is currently leading in the polls. Crime is totally unknown. UGBK's national animal is the Penguin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

UGBK is ranked 285,748^th in the world and 1,418^th in Europe for Safest, scoring 5.23 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
