The United Kingdom of New Tyran is a colossal, socially progressive nation in the west of Septentrion. The nation is ruled by Prime Minister Johnathan Holt with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, ubiquitous missile silos, and daily referendums. The humourless population of 9.476 billion Tyrannians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
Politics
The large, corrupt government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Education, Industry and Law & Order are also considered important, while Spirituality is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hadaway. The average income tax rate is 92.3%.
Economy
The frighteningly efficient New Tyranian economy, worth a remarkable 1,764 trillion Guilders a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 186,255 Guilders, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.8 times as much as the poorest.
Culture
Every new building project has to undergo a five-year environmental impact study before it can go ahead, the police double as repo men, the breathalyser pledge is a traditional part of marriages in New Tyran, and weapons produced by newly nationalised armaments factories have been found to contain sawdust instead of gunpowder. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Tyran's national animal is the Crested Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
