The United States of America of Arrstotzka is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by President James Madison with an iron fist, and renowned for its avant-garde cinema, smutty television, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 16.367 billion Americans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The medium-sized, corrupt government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Industry, Healthcare, and Education are also considered important, while Welfare and Social Policy aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Columbia. The average income tax rate is 69.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient American economy, worth a remarkable 3,837 trillion US dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 234,456 US dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.
Arrstotzka recently hosted the least successful trade negotiations since The Phantom Menace, increasing inclusiveness is a sign of the times, the government sends submarines to retrieve bodies from shipwrecked submarines, and children dream of becoming physicians and physicists. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Arrstotzka's national animal is the bald eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is not mandated.
Arrstotzka is ranked 15,393rd in the world and 7th in Pax Britannia for Most Cultured, scoring 100 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
