The Colony of The British Corste Islands is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by King George III with an iron fist, and notable for its zero percent divorce rate, enslaved workforce, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 1.79 billion Corstians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Spirituality, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while International Aid and Social Policy are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Saint Newliverpoolstown. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 22.4%.
The very strong British economy, worth 117 trillion Pounds a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Furniture Restoration, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 65,851 Pounds, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 340,628 per year while the poor average 6,916, a ratio of 49.2 to 1.
Nobody is allowed to stop the local daycare from reading Nietzsche to pre-schoolers, hordes of tourists are ruining the environment, spoiler warnings are now given out before political speeches, and concussed Lionball players cannot remember their lineup position. Crime is a problem. The British Corste Islands's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Protestantism.
The British Corste Islands is ranked 276,372nd in the world and 387th in United Kingdom for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring -11.83 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
