The Dictatorship of The Union Of The English is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Steven Hammer with an iron fist, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, strictly enforced bedtime, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 4.721 billion Anglo-Americans 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, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Boston. The average income tax rate is 69.2%.
The frighteningly efficient Anglo-American economy, worth 821 trillion Dolsterlings 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 large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. 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 impressive 173,927 Dolsterlings, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.
The nation has always been at war with Moltovea, everyone seems to be pushing the buttons of AIs, captains must wait until all rats are safe before jumping ship, and the nationalised Arms Manufacturing Industry is not interested in making weapons. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Union Of The English's national animal is the Bald Eagles, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Catholicism.
The Union Of The English is ranked 111,938th in the world and 146th in KAISERREICH for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 163.87 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
