The Constitutional Monarchy of White-Chapel is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Prime Minister Tony Delmare with a fair hand, and remarkable for its ban on automobiles, daily referendums, and ritual sacrifices. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 1.514 billion White-Chapelians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New White-Chapel City. The average income tax rate is 81.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient White-Chapelian economy, worth 154 trillion Monarchical Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 102,241 Monarchical Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation refuses to discard its increasingly useless penny, getting milk from the local corner store no longer requires donning advanced hiking gear, senior executives have become freelance basket-weavers in search of less stress and better work-life balance, and cults that offer eternal life after death to those who follow a self-sacrificing saviour are frowned upon. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. White-Chapel's national animal is the White Dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Chapelian Catholicism.

White-Chapel is ranked 39,941st in the world and 29th in Canada for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 4,686.87 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
