The Theocratic Imperium of Englassia is a huge, orderly nation, ruled by Patriarch Gideon Lionhart with an iron fist, and notable for its compulsory military service, punitive income tax rates, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 829 million Englassians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Liongate. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 63.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Englassian economy, worth 98.9 trillion Lionstones a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Trout Farming, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 119,284 Lionstones, with the richest citizens earning 5.7 times as much as the poorest.

Horns and hypocrisy are the newest exports of Englassia, sofas are perpetually on sales that Must End Soon, government bureaucrats review designs for birdhouses to ensure they do not block the views of neighbors, and Patriarch Gideon Lionhart can often be seen hanging around playgrounds chatting with the kids. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Englassia's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Englassia is ranked 281,149^th in the world and 1,138^th in Europe for Largest Black Market, with 40.8 billion Standard Monetary Units.
