The Pink Wonderland of Scotsgale is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by Queen Anastasia with an iron fist, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, pith helmet sales, and complete lack of prisons. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 8.792 billion Scotsgaleans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt, socially-minded government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Administration, and Education also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Anastadt. The average income tax rate is 82.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Scotsgalean economy, worth a remarkable 1,306 trillion Scotsgalean Francs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 148,639 Scotsgalean Francs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Noises louder than a whisper have been prohibited by law, major cities are suffering under water rationing, the nation's security is vitally dependent on imports of The Cult of the Holy Lioness, and oilmen are in the business of greasing people's palms. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Scotsgale's national animal is the Scotsgalean Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The Cult of the Holy Lioness.

Scotsgale is ranked 14,469th in the world and 12th in Britannia for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 82.7 Effective Tax Rate.
