Location: The British Empire

Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Bible and Revolver Empire of Gen Charles Gordon is a gargantuan, economically powerful nation, notable for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 11.473 billion are known throughout the region for their efficiency and work ethic, as well as their general suspicion of leisure.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Religion & Spirituality, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 21%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Woodchip Exports, and Information Technology industries.

Crime -- especially youth-related -- is relatively low, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gen Charles Gordon's national animal is the lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the pound.

Gen Charles Gordon is ranked 9th in The British Empire and 42,210th in the world for Most Extreme, scoring 21 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
