The United Kingdom of Razor6514 is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Commander Farsight with an iron fist, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, digital currency, and strictly enforced bedtime. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 24.81 billion Razorians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The tiny, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Industry and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Environment and Welfare receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Westland. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Razorish economy, worth a remarkable 7,638 trillion Bottle caps a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an amazing 307,877 Bottle caps, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,861,536 per year while the poor average 3,052, a ratio of 937 to 1.

The nation's museums are real penny-pinchers, families consisting of more than three people are forced to split up, the government is denying reports that criminals injected with experimental drugs have turned into monstrous supervillains, and fast-food chefs regularly win Health Innovation Awards for spitting on burgers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Razor6514's national animal is the Bloodwing, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Beatlemania.

Razor6514 is ranked 1,811th in the world and 1st in British Isles for Most Stationary, with 4,142.66401536 days.
