“I would rather my soul broil in hell than I harm you”

Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The United Kingdom of Captain Billy Kidd is a colossal, safe nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 6.719 billion Kiddians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The tiny government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Administration, and Education also on the agenda, while International Aid and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Southwark. The average income tax rate is 8.0%.

The strong Captain Billy Kiddian economy, worth 450 trillion sterlings a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Arms Manufacturing, and Information Technology. Average income is 66,993 sterlings, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

Senior executives have become freelance basket-weavers in search of less stress and better work-life balance, annual government budgets include a sizeable spend on "making things look fabulous", children are often punished for the sins of the fathers, and Captain Billy Kidd has designated Southwark as its capital city. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control. Captain Billy Kidd's national animal is the parrot, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Captain Billy Kidd is ranked 174,536^th in the world and 1^st in London England for Lowest Crime Rates, with 58.91 law-abiding acts per hour.
