The United Kingdom of Tuna Sandwiches is a very large, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 172 million Tuna Sandwichesians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.
The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 15.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but inefficient Tuna Sandwichesian economy, worth 8.35 trillion pounds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 48,545 pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.
Candidates make campaign speeches at the funerals of former rivals, citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements, voting is compulsory, and Tuna Sandwiches's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region. Crime is totally unknown. Tuna Sandwiches's national animal is the tuna, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.
Tuna Sandwiches is ranked 95,251st in the world and 102nd in Midnight Vale for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 260.38 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
