The United Kingdom of Clarence-Voslage is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by HM The King with an even hand, and remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, frequent executions, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, devout population of 7.474 billion Clarence-Voslageans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Griswall City. The average income tax rate is 95.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Clarence-Voslagean economy, worth a remarkable 1,311 trillion Voslagean marks a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 175,469 Voslagean marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Chekhov's guns are killing the entertainment budget, the nation's universities are often mistaken for foreign embassies, clergy never mention brand names for fear of losing their government subsidies, and the government recently donated a surfboard to an impoverished family in a landlocked region. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Clarence-Voslage's national animal is the pigeon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The Royal Cult.

Clarence-Voslage is ranked 6,638th in the world and 168th in The East Pacific for Highest Food Quality, scoring 188.35 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
