Overview • PeopleGovernmentEconomyTrendAnalysis

The United States of General Hammond is a massive, economically powerful nation, ruled by Major General George Hammond with an even hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 4.804 billion are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it concentrates mainly on Defence, although Law & Order and Education are on the agenda. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stargate Command. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 23%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, followed by Information Technology and Automobile Manufacturing.

The 'kind of scrawny' 500 meter hurdle is a popular event, long arduous trials are held for the most trivial of offences, visitors to the famed rainforests are instead taken to vast furniture factories, and ten-year-olds regularly found their own political parties. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is relatively low, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. General Hammond's national animal is the Asgard, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the Dollar.

General Hammond is ranked 12th in Stargate and 26,060th in the world for Largest Public Sector, scoring 16 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
