The Kingdom of Pound Green is a titanic, safe nation, ruled by King Eadric with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 18.226 billion Pound Greeners love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hooke Hill. The average income tax rate is 82.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Pound Greenian economy, worth a remarkable 1,668 trillion vects a year, is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 91,563 vects, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's navy has been named the scourge of the seven thousand seas, superfoods are often seen as supervillains, the government endows universities based on clearly demonstrated greed, and hidden bedroom-cams are installed to catch mothers doing their kids' homework. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pound Green's national animal is the Saker falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is pagan.

Pound Green is ranked 1,356^th in the world and 1^st in Vectis for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 16,037.4 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
