The Constitutional Monarchy of William1234 is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by King William IV with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, daily referendums, and punitive income tax rates. The devout population of 1.888 billion William1234ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Amsterdam. The average income tax rate is 57.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong William1234ian economy, worth 129 trillion guldens a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 68,830 guldens, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Eminent domain has been abolished, souvenir shops that sell alphorns are taking advantage of gullible tourists, astronomers are flocking to William1234 to take advantage of its clear night skies, and citizens are now allowed to discuss whether King William IV is the greatest ruler ever or simply the greatest ruler of this generation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. William1234's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Christianity.

William1234 is ranked 231,656^th in the world and 8,852^nd in Balder for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -5.83 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
