The White rose of United North Yorkshire is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by The Big Yorkshire Pudding with an iron fist, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and anti-smoking policies. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 1.488 billion Yorks are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of York. The average income tax rate is 60.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Yorkshirean economy, worth 161 trillion Yorkshire Puddings a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 108,257 Yorkshire Puddings, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

The police double as repo men, this year's hottest fashion trend is the Lese Majeste collection, anti-vaxxers claim that injected children are prone to psychotic breaks when they see the 'Queen of Diamonds' playing card, and Christianity has been named as United North Yorkshire's national religion. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. United North Yorkshire's national animal is the Swift, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christianity.

United North Yorkshire is ranked 114,851st in the world and 2,105th in The East Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1,666.06 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
