The United Confederation of Engliscya is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by High Administrator with an iron fist, and notable for its closed borders, ubiquitous missile silos, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.999 billion Engliscyans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Administration, and Industry also on the agenda, while Welfare and Social Policy aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Stratov-Micormich Estate. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 53.7%.
The frighteningly efficient Engliscyan economy, worth a remarkable 1,314 trillion Temps a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Retail, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 187,747 Temps, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 677,713 per year while the poor average 37,155, a ratio of 18.2 to 1.
Prices for nearly everything reach all-time highs as business tax breaks are discontinued, High Administrator has killer fashion sense, groups of government workers are declared protected tribes if they venture too deep into the Capitol, and quiet professionalism has returned to the nation's armed forces. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Engliscya's national animal is the Confriedsadler, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is The Cult of Nationalist Conformity.
Engliscya is ranked 3,649th in the world and 1st in Angels Encarmine for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 11,829.29 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
