The United Kingdom of The Teddy is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Teddy the Great with a fair hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service, ritual sacrifices, and rampant corporate plagiarism. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 12.053 billion The Teddians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bearia. The average income tax rate is 97.4%.

The strong Teddyian economy, worth a remarkable 1,454 trillion Ted Rings a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 120,669 Ted Rings, with the richest citizens earning 6.0 times as much as the poorest.

The fines for getting caught with the wrong recipe book can force The Teddians into bankruptcy, attendance of fathers at PTA meetings is at an all-time high, the government merely sends empty platitudes whenever natural disasters strike foreign nations, and a sledgehammer and a spray can are seen as the default tools of political debate. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Teddy's national animal is the Great Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Great Grand Church of the Teddy.

The Teddy is ranked 132,720^th in the world and 6,751^st in The North Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -6.84 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
