The United States of Barceloneta-PR- is a massive, efficient nation, notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, disturbing lack of elderly people, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 3.582 billion Barceloneta-PR-ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 77.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Barceloneta-PR-ian economy, worth 538 trillion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 150,239 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

The fishing lobby has stemmed the tide of environmental regulations, the nation solves other countries' human rights problems with a generous dose of violence, immigrants are required to salute the flag five times a day, and no-one can foil the ambitions of Big Aluminium. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Barceloneta-PR-'s national animal is the bald eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Barceloneta-PR- is ranked 13,108^th in the world and 5^th in Aerospace for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 8,695.97 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
