The Imperial Dynasty of Northern Song is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Emperor Taizu with an even hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, national health service, and aversion to nipples. The compassionate, devout population of 5.52 billion Han have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bianjing-汴京. The average income tax rate is 80.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Han economy, worth 563 trillion Silver Taels a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 102,075 Silver Taels, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

Society and government have been organized according to a feudal hierarchy, many politicians are serving jail time for minor drug offenses, Red Crowned Cranes with strange deformities like three eyes and tentacles have been seen prancing through the countryside where industrial waste is dumped, and the installation of street lights across remote goat tracks has left citizens bemused. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Northern Song's national animal is the Red Crowned Crane, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Neo-Legalism-法家.

Northern Song is ranked 46,477^th in the world and 1,163^rd in Balder for Nudest, with 212 cheeks per square mile.
