The United Kingdom of Fishtarian is a large, genial nation, renowned for its frequent executions, pith helmet sales, and keen interest in outer space. The quiet, industrious population of 169 million Fishtarianians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Healthcare, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. The average income tax rate is 58.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Fishtarianian economy, worth 6.99 trillion Fishtarian Coins a year, is quite specialized and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Information Technology. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 41,332 Fishtarian Coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Freighter lifeboats have been replaced by state of the art marker buoys so divers can recover the cargo after they sink, acute politicians deride opposition members for being obtuse, broken suspension systems are giving auto repair shops plenty of business, and museums have more touchscreens on display than artifacts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fishtarian's national animal is the Harp Seal, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Fishtarian is ranked 186,042^nd in the world and 103^rd in Fish Storage for Most Developed, scoring 53.7 on the Human Development Index.
