The United States of Printer467 is a colossal, cultured nation, renowned for its daily referendums, public floggings, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 5.491 billion Printer467ians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 79.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Printer467ian economy, worth 761 trillion cards a year, is quite specialized and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an impressive 138,634 cards, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.
Surrealist houses shaped like mushrooms and volcanoes dominate the wealthiest neighborhoods, cases of disease among the civilian population dwindle as civilian population dwindles, if a tree falls in the forest and nobody is there to hear it... Printer467ian satellites can detect it, and the police use sound cannons and mortars to deal with loud parties. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Printer467's national animal is the legendary, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Printer467 is ranked 96,321st in the world and 1,680th in Two for Largest Populations, with 5.49 billion capita.
