Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Most Loyal and Devine kindom of GOD SAVE THE Queen is a huge, cultured nation, ruled by His high supreme majesty King Samuel I with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 998 million are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Defence, Law & Order, and Education. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of His High Supreme Majesties city. The average income tax rate is 69%, and even higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Tourism industry.

Councils up and down the country wrangle over legal matters, the poor are often seen pale and dizzy after selling their blood to make ends meet, artists are pillars of society, and the importance of winning Olympic gold medals is indoctrinated from an early age. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. GOD SAVE THE Queen's national animal is the SAmuel, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Samuel.

GOD SAVE THE Queen is ranked 1st in Elizabeth and 47,996th in the world for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
