The United Kingdom of Great Britain and All Ireland is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by King Alexander IV with an iron fist, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 4.746 billion Brits are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Edinburgh. The average income tax rate is 36.0%.

The frighteningly efficient British economy, worth 692 trillion pounds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 145,832 pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.8 times as much as the poorest.

Light entertainment shows are light on actual entertainment, massive new slaughterhouses are being hailed as a sign of progress, several inches are being added to first class seating, and only 'organics' are permitted to be citizens. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Great Britain and All Ireland's national animal is the unicorn, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.

Great Britain and All Ireland is ranked 15,947^th in the world and 824^th in Balder for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 9,969.58 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
