The United Kingdom of The Animals is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Eric Burdon with a fair hand, and renowned for its public floggings, infamous sell-swords, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 25.744 billion Animalsians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.
The relatively small, corrupt, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Newcastle upon Tyne. The average income tax rate is 28.2%.
The frighteningly efficient Animalsian economy, worth a remarkable 4,827 trillion Blues Rifts a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Soda Sales, and Information Technology. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 187,513 Blues Rifts, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.8 times as much as the poorest.
ADHD now stands for Attention Distracted by Hardware Devices, anti-vacs campaigners claim the government is inserting weird devices into their bodies, belief that Eric Burdon is a lizard-person from outer space has reached an all-time high, and Eric Burdon steals from the rich and gives to the needy. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. The Animals's national animal is the Burdon Lion, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Agnostic Pantheism.
