The United States of Printer936 is a colossal, orderly nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.386 billion Printer936ians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 83.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Printer936ian economy, worth 744 trillion cards a year, is led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 138,225 cards, with the richest citizens earning 9.0 times as much as the poorest.

Walking to the local pizza parlour earns a lovely sports participation ribbon, the government subsidises medicines of mass destruction, surrealist houses shaped like mushrooms and volcanoes dominate the wealthiest neighborhoods, and ceremonial zweihänders are used in holy rituals. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Printer936's national animal is the legendary, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Printer936 is ranked 276,416^th in the world and 1,740^th in Two for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 33.85 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
