Geography
The United Kingdom (commonly known as the UK) is a twelve region nation bordering eight other states, this unusually large number of borders historically made the UK a key strategic crossroads between Europe and North America.
The resource distribution has left the eUK with a regular Weapons bonus of 60% and a food bonus of 40%.
The presence of Oil has seen the UK become a regular sparring partner with Canada who seeks to grab that resource for itself whenever the UK finds itself distracted by an invasion from a larger nation or during its periodic wars with Ireland or occasional raids from France.
The UK has been part of many military alliances, recently becoming part of the SIRIUS military alliance as approved by a national referendum in July 2014.
Due to current occupation of neighboring nations the eUK is currently bordered by Poland, Chile, Germany in place of Netherlands, Belgium, France & Denmark

Military
Currently, the Military is made up of any eUK, privately funded and commanded MU's.
Alliances
Recent history has seen a great deal of change. The United Kingdom was once a member of the ATLANTIS alliance but adopted a policy of neutrality following the organization's dissolution, initiating a period characterized by extremely low relations with it's former allies such as the USA and Sweden. As a consequence the UK eventually joined PEACE Global Community in a memorable episode of political turmoil prior to the PEACE Invasion of North America, a controversial move as PEACE and ATLANTIS were traditionally enemies. The United Kingdom left PEACE in November 2009 after many key allies had also left. The United Kingdom became a member of the Phoenix Alliance, the successor of PEACE, on December 06, 2009. On the 24th of February 2011, the United Kingdom left Phoenix and joined 20pxTerra but left on April 25th 2011, due to dissagreements with other member nations mostly over their treatment within the alliance and foreign policy.
After leaving Terra the United Kingdom tried to maintain the Strasbourg Treaty and for a time succeeded. However with the changing political climate and growing ever-closer to ONE nations the treaty became a Non-Agression Pact despite both France and Germany remaining Terra members. It was eventually disolved (neither side will agree on the reasons), and currently the United Kingdom is at war with all of their former Terra allies.
The UK joined ONE in December as a full member nation of the alliance, having been pro-ONE for most of the year. When ONE reformed after a long ajustment period the UK entered into TWO as a founding member.

Economy
Tax
The UK tax system encourages maximum productivity in the companies which supply it to lower prices, increase exports and raise tax revenue. Products which the UK can produce at optimal productivity have a low local tax and high import tax, while products which the UK cannot produce with high productivity have a high local tax and low import tax.

Trade
The United Kingdom occasionally blocks trade with enemy nations. Due to poor diplomatic relations, frequent targets include Ireland and USA. For example, in June 2011 Greece and Croatia were both embargoed by Jamesw following their support of Ireland during the UK's invasion. During the months of December and January, Thomas765 and Kravenn began embargoing EDEN nations that dumped products on the UK market. France became a target of this by Kravenn's term as CP and the French were consequently embargoed for 11 months.
Society
Communication
The UK community offers a variety of forums and IRC channels for eUK users. The Kumnaa founded, eUK forum historically housed the executive and congressional branches of the government but has lately fallen into disuse.
The Rizon IRC network has channels for all Political parties, Military Units and other miscellaneous channels including the most widely used national channel #euk.
