The United States of I am Superman is a colossal, cultured nation, notable for its absence of drug laws. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 6.777 billion live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, liberal, pro-business individuals concentrates mainly on Commerce, although Education and Social Welfare are secondary priorities. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Automobile Manufacturing, Gambling, and Tourism industries.

The capital of I am Superman has burned to the ground and caused riots throughout the country, abortions are routinely performed in I am Superman's hospitals, the nation is famous for having one of the world's largest Lois Lane hunting institutions, and it's a common sight to see angry commuters with grenade launchers mounted on their vehicles. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is crippling, probably because of the country's utter lack of prisons. I am Superman's national animal is the Lois Lane, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the kryptonite.

I am Superman is ranked 31st in Philosophy 115 and 79,173rd in the world for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -2 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
