The Socialist State of The Greater Imperial British Empire is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Cali with an iron fist, and renowned for its otherworldly petting zoo, vat-grown people, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 12.438 billion Greater British Imperials 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 large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Education, Law & Order, and Administration also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Home Square. The average income tax rate is 97.4%.

The frighteningly efficient a Greater British Imperial economy, worth a remarkable 3,969 trillion Greater Imperial Pounds 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. 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 an amazing 319,134 Greater Imperial Pounds, with the richest citizens earning 8.0 times as much as the poorest.

It's a marvellous night for a moon dance as the sparks on your home start to rise, the country is preparing for war, imprisonment is the leading cause of disownment, and scientists earn more grant money for reproducing old experiments than trying anything new. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Greater Imperial British Empire's national animal is the Jonathan, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Stars.

The Greater Imperial British Empire is ranked 3,419^th in the world and 21^st in The Glorious Nations of Iwaku for Lowest Crime Rates, with 126.42 law-abiding acts per hour.
