The Incorporated States of The British Autocratic union is a huge, orderly nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, public floggings, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 428 million Autocrats 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 relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order and Industry also on the agenda, while Social Policy and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Auston. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 16.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Autocratic economy, worth 59.6 trillion Autocratic Pounds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 139,245 Autocratic Pounds, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 831,746 per year while the poor average 10,622, a ratio of 78.3 to 1.

Failed genetic experiments wreak havoc as they roam the countryside, begun the Clone Wars have, the nation has recently been attributed to the funding of terrorist organisations, and possession of tomato seeds with intent to garden is a criminal offence. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The British Autocratic union's national animal is the Salmon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

The British Autocratic union is ranked 90,151st in the world and 366th in Europeia for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 2,258.81 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
