The United Kingdom of The-British-Isles is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Richard John Walter with an even hand, and renowned for its frequent executions, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 9.243 billion Britons are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The enormous government prioritizes Healthcare, with Environment, Defense, and Education also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of London. The average income tax rate is 79.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The The-British-Islesian economy, worth 561 trillion Pounds a year, is highly specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 60,749 Pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Expensive lawyers are hired to defend citizens in court for public urination charges against their pets, one can walk from one side of London to the other without setting foot on The-British-Islesian soil, 13-year-old internet trolls are treated as a threat on par with terrorists, and the police crack down on tax evaders without mercy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The-British-Isles's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Anglicanism.

The-British-Isles is ranked 58,429^th in the world and 625^th in Europe for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 128.8 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
