The Commonwealth Administration of The British Overseas Territories is a gargantuan, safe nation, remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, anti-smoking policies, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 21.071 billion British are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The tiny, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of London. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.7%.

The powerhouse British economy, worth a remarkable 1,457 trillion Pound sterlings a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Retail, and Gambling. Average income is 69,178 Pound sterlings, with the richest citizens earning 8.2 times as much as the poorest.

Employers are gradually adapting to the alien premise of paying wages to their workers, all streets are privately owned toll roads, teachers are routinely tested to keep their jobs, and truth is often impossible to tell from fiction on the evening news. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The British Overseas Territories's national animal is the lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The British Overseas Territories is ranked 167,841st in the world and 1st in British Overseas Territory for Lowest Crime Rates, with 59.46 law-abiding acts per hour.
