The King-Emperor's Old Dominions of The Union of British North America is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Prime Minister Dame Felicity Graves with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 7.558 billion North Americans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Philadelphia. The average income tax rate is 41.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient North American economy, worth a remarkable 2,152 trillion North American pounds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 284,764 North American pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Foreign governments are threatened if they so much as mention the word "election", a typical fast food menu item could serve a small army, a favorite "life hack" for gap year backpackers is to pretend to be homeless for government handouts, and families are left homeless as entire suburbs are bulldozed on the whim of tribal chiefs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. The Union of British North America's national animal is the turkey, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Provincial Anglican Holdouts.

The Union of British North America is ranked 124,183^rd in the world and 12^th in Regionless for Largest Black Market, with 263 billion Standard Monetary Units.
