The United Kingdom of Greater Orcadia is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Iain Gordon with an even hand, and notable for its punitive income tax rates and stringent health and safety legislation. The quiet, industrious population of 11.155 billion Greater Orcadians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — prioritizes Healthcare, with Education and Environment also on the agenda, while Spirituality receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Edinburgh. The average income tax rate is 76.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The strong Greater Orcadian economy, worth 501 trillion Orcadian Pounds a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 44,996 Orcadian Pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Bleach is the nation's most common pesticide, the government officially wants you to slow down and speak more clearly, fewer people are bathing as citizens must show ration stamps before they can turn on their faucets, and education is transforming people into first-rate snobs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Greater Orcadia's national animal is the Deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.
Greater Orcadia is ranked 39,334th in the world and 12th in Teremara for Most Stationary, with 1,151.09691607528 days.
