The Federation of Britansk is a large, safe nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working population of 62 million Britanskians 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 Defense, Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 40.1%.
The Britanskian economy, worth 2.93 trillion Pounds a year, is led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Gambling, and Retail. Average income is 47,214 Pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.
The government is interviewing for thousands of 'Religious Censor' positions, builders spend more time negotiating "tasteful architecture" than on actual construction, the armed forces are locked in an expensive and bloody war abroad to stamp out possible terrorists, and extraordinary tribunals try accused financial criminals. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Britansk's national animal is the Lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Britansk is ranked 264,816th in the world and 791st in NationStates for Largest Populations, with 62.0 million capita.
