The United Kingdom of Isselmere-Nieland (UKIN) is relatively ancient but until recently comparatively powerless. The UKIN is presently a member of several alliances and is noted for its publishing and automotive industries, although its information technology and shipbuilding sectors are advancing steadily.

It is a constitutional monarchy governed by the Sovereign through the Council of State. The present constitution dates from 1986. The Council of State consists of the Sovereign or his or her Royal Commissioner(s), the Council of Ministers, the Council of Peers, and the General Council of the Judicature. Formerly, the Temple Council, which governed the Church of Isselmere, was part of the Council of State, until the Church was disestablished in 2004. The Council of Ministers is the de facto government, headed by the Prime Minister. The Council of Peers advises the Sovereign on matters concerning the nobility, while the General Council of the Judicature (GCJ) advises the Sovereign on judicial issues. In practice, the Sovereign has little or no influence on the GCJ and custom, as well as the Constitution, has made the Sovereign subject to the advice of the Council of Ministers. The Sovereign may also obtain the advice of his Privy Council, although generally it is composed of active senior government ministers.

The UKIN itself is divided into four autonomous regions (Anguist, Detmere, Isselmere, and Nieland) and further into twenty-nine provinces.

The Royal Shipyards of Isselmere-Nieland is the largest nationalised industry in the UKIN.
