The United Kingdom of Roadblocks is a very large, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, punitive income tax rates, and suspicion of poets. The democratic population of 281 million Roadblocksians 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 Welfare, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 59.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Roadblocksian economy, worth 7.10 trillion pounds a year, is highly specialized and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 25,270 pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Maxtopians are both starving and giddy after the Roadblocksian military unleashed its biological weapons, snow in a furnace is a better long-term investment than pounds, the government has cut its subsidies for all special interest groups, and the justice of Roadblocks is considered superior to that of other nations. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Roadblocks's national animal is the panther, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Roadblocks is ranked 132,707^th in the world and 47^th in Benigtopia for Most Advanced Law Enforcement, scoring 1,765.78 on the Orwell Orderliness Index.
