The Duct Taped Together Lands of Broader Confederate States is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Ms President with a fair hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, free-roaming dinosaurs, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 2.802 billion Confederates live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Columbia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 3.8%.

The very strong Dixie economy, worth 225 trillion dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 80,479 dollars, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 314,168 per year while the poor average 14,063, a ratio of 22.3 to 1.

The streets are increasingly clogged with poverty-stricken beggars, lawyers turn down litigation cases and corporate work in order to focus on lucrative public defence work, airplanes have giant grilles on their noses to knock drones out of their path, and pharmaceutical companies emphatically promise that "your pills are in the mail" rather than admit any supply shortfall. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Broader Confederate States's national animal is the rattlesnake, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is None.

Broader Confederate States is ranked 2,788^th in the world and 1^st in Fracture of 2036 for Lowest Overall Tax Burden, scoring 148.79 on the Hayek Index.
