The BRITISH NOOOOOOOO of Bad English Accent is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, avant-garde cinema, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 6.656 billion Bad English Accentians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.
The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 55.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The very strong Bad English Accentian economy, worth 573 trillion LBS 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 a large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, Tourism, and Information Technology. 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 86,214 LBS, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The armed forces are locked in an expensive and bloody war abroad to stamp out possible terrorists, people reciting Shakespeare have become a common sight, escaped birthday balloons are torpedoed out of the sky, and the government invades its allies more than its enemies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bad English Accent's national animal is the Queen, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Bad English Accent is ranked 176,293rd in the world and 3,174th in Artificial Solar System for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring zero on the Clooney Contribution Index.
