The Incorporated States of The British Autocratic union is a huge, efficient nation, remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, avowedly heterosexual populace, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 361 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 is primarily concerned with Defense, with Law & Order and Industry also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Spirituality are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Auston. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 13.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Autocratic economy, worth 49.1 trillion Autocratic Pounds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 135,881 Autocratic Pounds, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 797,408 per year while the poor average 10,816, a ratio of 73.7 to 1.

On graduation day the hats thrown in the air fly high enough to stun passing pigeons, theoretical science is only theoretical, the government is making attempts at curtailing the flood of spam emails with little progress, and paralegals spend all day Hewlett-Packing attorneys' law briefs. 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 284,124th in the world and 1,253rd in Europeia for Nicest Citizens, with 0.35 average smiles per day.
