The United Kingdom of Odin-land is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Count Nicholas Stonkton with an even hand, and remarkable for its otherworldly petting zoo, ubiquitous missile silos, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed population of 8.558 billion Odin-landians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Asgard. The average income tax rate is 79.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Odin-landian economy, worth a remarkable 1,521 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 177,750 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Visiting dignitaries often end up cuddling in the hot tub with Count Nicholas Stonkton, class clowns are frequently listed among the most dangerous criminals in the nation, government theft from poor artists to give to rich allies has been dubbed the "reverse Robin Hood" policy, and it's been a banner year for local vexillology. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Odin-land's national animal is the Polar bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Norse Mythology.
