British Isles is a enormous region, with a very large community of 206 member nations. British Isles also has a very large representation in the World Assembly, with 51 member nations.
In British Isles, denizens enjoy their civil rights, although not too much, or too freely. Nations in the region are healthy democracies, with denizens being afforded an extensive array of political freedoms. The economy of the region is very strong, with a large number of very powerful trading powers. The median tax rate of the region is 46%, but is frequently higher for the wealthy. The economies of nations in the region tend to be weighted more towards the public sector, with on average only 45% of the economy comprising the private sector. Stoking commercial activity is a major priority for governments, accounting for an average of 8% of public expenditure.
Education is a priority for governments throughout British Isles, with ample funding being provided and teachers enjoying a great deal of support. Crime is low: the region enjoys well-equipped and well-funded police forces, coupled with efficient but fair judicial systems. Denizens have very well-funded, well equipped defense forces. Public transport is an afterthought, with only 2% of total government budgets in the region being devoted to it.
Throughout British Isles, governments find themselves confused, with administration departments being so bloated that staff do not know what other staff are doing, with an average of over 8% of government budgets being devoted to Administration. Governments generally endow their healthcare departments with a large amount of funding, with an average of 9% of government budgets across the region being devoted to healthcare. Welfare is a large part of government expenditure, with denizens amply provided for. Governments in the region are avowedly atheist - no public funds are allocated to spirituality.
Social inequality is a major problem within British Isles, although some effort has been made to correct the problem. Natural environments are quite bad, although some measures have been undertaken to ensure that the environment is protected.
British Isles Forum
British Isles has a lively community of politics, role playing, a government and much, much more. Most of this happens on the forum, which is a normal ZetaBoards-system. British Isles forum currently has a post count of over 55 thousand. Most categories as well as subcategories are named after real-life places in London, such as The Tube, where you need to apply for citizenship, and the Globe Theater, where all RPing happens.
