The United Kingdom of Normzil is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by King Rian I with an iron fist, and notable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, free-roaming dinosaurs, and prohibition of alcohol. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 1.539 billion Normzilians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Miralua. The average income tax rate is 38.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Normzilian economy, worth 206 trillion Cuia-Reais a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 134,101 Cuia-Reais, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.
Literature classes frequently go on field trips to rock concerts, attendance of fathers at PTA meetings is at an all-time high, the 'kind of scrawny' 500 meter hurdle is a popular event, and in life full of care there is no time to stop and stare. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Normzil's national animal is the Pato Perê, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Normzil is ranked 34,218th in the world and 14th in Declansburg for Most Patriotic, with 41.73 flags saluted per person per day.
