The Empire of The Imperial Empire of Yorkshire is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by High Lord Emperor Chris Clarkson with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, keen interest in outer space, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 10.124 billion Yorkshireans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of York. The average income tax rate is 96.4%.
The frighteningly efficient a Yorkshirean economy, worth a remarkable 1,735 trillion Shillings a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an impressive 171,448 Shillings, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.
Slavery has been abolished, former slave-owners hope there are no hard feelings when they apply for jobs from their erstwhile charges, one can wake up in The Imperial Empire of Yorkshire and have breakfast in Bigtopia, and military spending is on the increase. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Imperial Empire of Yorkshire's national animal is the Honey Badger, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
The Imperial Empire of Yorkshire is ranked 39,272nd in the world and 343rd in Balder for Most Stationary, with 1,154.49862223152 days.
