The Germanium Monarchy of Danelaw Scandinavia is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Hoffekaiser William with an even hand, and remarkable for its frequent executions, compulsory military service, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed population of 2.164 billion Danelaw Scandinavians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Helsinki. The average income tax rate is 49.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Danelaw Scandinavian economy, worth 278 trillion Seas Unit Pounds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 128,763 Seas Unit Pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, sheepish teenagers are making eye contact with their parents for the first time in a decade during state-enforced 'no-phones hour', small children are learning a lot of new words from a teacher with Tourette Syndrome, and recorded music can be rented but not bought from record companies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Danelaw Scandinavia's national animal is the Stork, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Germanium-Tempel Christianity.

Danelaw Scandinavia is ranked 132,525^th in the world and 5,171^st in The East Pacific for Lowest Overall Tax Burden, scoring -0.55 on the Hayek Index.
