The United Federation of Plisskenstan is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Andrew Jackson with a fair hand, and notable for its anti-smoking policies. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 9.961 billion hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, liberal government stops and the rest of society begins, but it is effectively ruled by the Department of Education, with areas such as Religion & Spirituality and Social Welfare receiving almost no funds by comparison. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Thingamageek. The average income tax rate is 12%, but much higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Book Publishing industry, followed by Tourism and Automobile Manufacturing.

College students make ends meet by selling their kidneys, almost all of Plisskenstan's water is piped into the country from abroad for exorbitant prices, people are now classified as male, female, or genderqueer, and crime is on the rise as DNA sampling has been all but outlawed. Crime is totally unknown. Plisskenstan's national animal is the Chupacabra, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Sponk.

Plisskenstan is ranked 283rd in Capitalist Paradise and 93,897th in the world for Shortest Average Lifespan, scoring -25 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
