The British Founder of King Alexander is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by HRBM William V with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, public floggings, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 23.298 billion Britons are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of London. The average income tax rate is 80.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong British economy, worth a remarkable 1,525 trillion Pound Sterlings 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 slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Tourism, Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. 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 65,483 Pound Sterlings, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Elevator music has been replaced by thrash metal played at maximum volume, adverts proclaim it has to be healthy if the Mornay uses hand-grated Gallopavian Gruyère, the "war on terror" doesn't seem to be making Britons any less frightened, and cotton candy made from genuine cotton cellulose doesn't quite satisfy. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. King Alexander's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The Church of England and Scotland.

King Alexander is ranked 83,322^nd in the world and 44^th in The Kingdom of Great Britain for Lowest Crime Rates, with 68.05 law-abiding acts per hour.
