The Imperial Dynasty of Northern Song is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Emperor Taizu with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, national health service, and daily referendums. The compassionate, hard-working, devout population of 4.158 billion Han have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bianjing-汴京. The average income tax rate is 76.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Han economy, worth 455 trillion Silver Taels a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. Average income is an impressive 109,474 Silver Taels, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Heterosexuality is considered positive proof of fitness to parent, political visitors are forced to stop ten paces from Emperor Taizu's throne, retirement homes are filled with foreign war criminals, and birth rates have hit an all-time low. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Northern Song's national animal is the Red Crowned Crane, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Neo-Legalism-法家.

Northern Song is ranked 27,853^rd in the world and 26^th in Valley of Peace for Lowest Crime Rates, with 84.05 law-abiding acts per hour.
