The Republic of American Psychos29 is a massive, orderly nation, remarkable for its ritual sacrifices, suspicion of poets, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 1.51 billion American Psychos29ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 45.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The thriving American Psychos29ian economy, worth 124 trillion Business Cards a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 82,241 Business Cards, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Legislators toe the party line lest the Sergeant-at-Arms decide to conduct "truncheon practice" on the backbench, the request to "give us our daily bread" can only be fulfilled six days out of seven, crime is on the rise as online youths compete to vlog the most shocking scenes of violence, and politicians are often seen with soldiers pointing guns at their heads. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. American Psychos29's national animal is the Patrick, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

American Psychos29 is ranked 72,100^th in the world and 1,906^th in Suspicious for Most Corrupt Governments, with 24.55 kickbacks per hour.
