The Allied States of The 5th Doctor is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, renowned for its absence of drug laws. The democratic population of 28.691 billion 5th Doctorians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 32.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The enormous but inefficient 5th Doctorian economy, worth a remarkable 1,084 trillion pounds a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 37,794 pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Voting is voluntary, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, and a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway. Crime is almost non-existent. The 5th Doctor's national animal is the k-9.

The 5th Doctor is ranked 162,040^th in the world and 6^th in Mars for Lowest Crime Rates, with 59.97 law-abiding acts per hour.
