The Divine Imperium of Holy Nova Britannian is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by The Holy Padishah Emperor with an iron fist, and renowned for its otherworldly petting zoo, strictly enforced bedtime, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 21.994 billion Britannians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Arx Britannia. The average income tax rate is 99.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Nova Britannian economy, worth a remarkable 9,834 trillion Bancors a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 447,155 Bancors, with the richest citizens earning 7.1 times as much as the poorest.

Foreign converts are illuminated by both missionaries and helicopter searchlights, many marriages end in murder, military geniuses responsible for brilliant campaigns are drummed out because they have close same-sex friends and an interest in interior design, and just as students finish their homework it's time for school. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Holy Nova Britannian's national animal is the Grey Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The Imperial Truth.

Holy Nova Britannian is ranked 411^th in the world and 1^st in Arctic Reaches for Lowest Crime Rates, with 207.84 law-abiding acts per hour.
