The United Kingdom of The Teddy is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Teddy the Great with a fair hand, and remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, ritual sacrifices, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 11.871 billion The Teddians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bearia. The average income tax rate is 97.4%.

The strong Teddyian economy, worth a remarkable 1,432 trillion Ted Rings a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 120,669 Ted Rings, with the richest citizens earning 6.0 times as much as the poorest.

The fines for getting caught with the wrong recipe book can force The Teddians into bankruptcy, attendance of fathers at PTA meetings is at an all-time high, the government merely sends empty platitudes whenever natural disasters strike foreign nations, and a sledgehammer and a spray can are seen as the default tools of political debate. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Teddy's national animal is the Great Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Great Grand Church of the Teddy.

The Teddy is ranked 160,438^th in the world and 8,848^th in The North Pacific for Least Corrupt Governments, with 70.03 Percentage Of Bribes Refused.
