The Ship of HMS Interceptor is a titanic, orderly nation, renowned for its stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 12.875 billion HMS Interceptorians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 47.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant HMS Interceptorian economy, worth 164 trillion doubloons a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Automobile Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 12,795 doubloons, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Organ donation is compulsory, surveillance cameras are banned, calling dibs is an unalienable right, and escargots have lost their charm ever since they started to be called 'cooked land snails'. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. HMS Interceptor's national animal is the sparrow.

HMS Interceptor is ranked 225,169^th in the world and 1,750^th in The catholic military orders for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 271.16 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
