The United States of Printer865 is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, keen interest in outer space, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.42 billion Printer865ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 85.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Printer865ian economy, worth 650 trillion cards a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 120,020 cards, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

It is customary to begin the summer with a fasting ritual in which people eat nothing but kumquat smoothies, the government is engaging in an agricultural trade war with Maxtopia, all artwork is carefully screened for offensive material, and nations around the region are recognising Gingerbeard as the new leader of Brasilistan. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Printer865's national animal is the legendary, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Printer865 is ranked 273,752^nd in the world and 1,284^th in Two for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 35.95 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
