The Queen's State of Ruskin Huxley is a gargantuan, safe nation, notable for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 22.192 billion Ruskin Huxleyians enjoy great social freedoms and frequent elections, where the majority of the populace regularly votes to increase its benefits at the expense of various hapless minorities.

The enormous, moralistic, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Environment, and Public Transport. The average income tax rate is 73.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Ruskin Huxleyian economy, worth 277 trillion betales a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Furniture Restoration, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 12,514 betales, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

All major public areas are watched by police surveillance cameras, voting is voluntary, and tourists from around the world come to visit the country's famous rainforests. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ruskin Huxley's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ruskin Huxley is ranked 207,895th in the world and 5th in Castries for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 36.06 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
