The United Kingdom of John Leeson is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by K-9 with an even hand, and remarkable for its public floggings, free-roaming dinosaurs, and strictly enforced bedtime. The hard-nosed, democratic, devout population of 3.513 billion Britons 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.

The medium-sized, corrupt government prioritizes Administration, although Industry, Welfare, and Defense are also considered important, while International Aid and Social Policy are ignored. The average income tax rate is 40.1%.

The thriving British economy, worth 270 trillion pounds a year, is led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Arms Manufacturing, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 76,939 pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.7 times as much as the poorest.

Academics have a bone to pick with free market entrepreneurs, coffee-addicted citizens look forward to baristas getting their name wrong at local coffee shops, every workday begins with group therapy, and university applicants are judged by how much they laugh at professors' tired jokes. Crime, especially youth-related, is a problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. John Leeson's national animal is the fendahl, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

John Leeson is ranked 121,048^th in the world and 38^th in The Companions for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 40.11 Effective Tax Rate.
