The United Kingdom of Moon55 is a massive, genial nation, renowned for its digital currency, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The quiet, industrious population of 2.364 billion Moon55ians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 41.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Moon55ian economy, worth 18.9 trillion junk values a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Trout Farming, Tourism, Woodchip Exports, and Arms Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 7,984 junk values, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

War criminals are given full state funerals, nobody looks each other in the eye at neighborhood block parties any more, murderers frequently escape punishment by claiming they were protecting their honour, and the judicial branch is strongly influenced by the Communist Party. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Moon55's national animal is the legendary, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Moon55 is ranked 179,527th in the world and 886th in TPFKAQ for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 52.43 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
