The Patriotic States of American Woman V is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 2.348 billion 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Healthcare, and Education. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of District of Columbia. The average income tax rate is 30%. A small but healthy private sector is led by the Pizza Delivery industry, followed by Book Publishing and Arms Manufacturing.

Crime -- especially youth-related -- is relatively low, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. American Woman V's national animal is the cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the dollar.
