The United States of Chris Stapleton is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Harris with an iron fist, and renowned for its public floggings, disturbing lack of elderly people, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 5.386 billion Chris Stapletonians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 67.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Chris Stapletonian economy, worth 636 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 118,191 dollars, with the richest citizens earning 9.3 times as much as the poorest.

Safety warnings are prohibited lest they give people ideas, children in school learn that marriage and slavery go hand in hand, employers are finding it hard to screen candidates now that everyone gets A grades in their exams, and destitute AIs lurk around online bulletin boards begging for spare dollars. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Chris Stapleton's national animal is the eagle, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Chris Stapleton is ranked 30,927^th in the world and 1^st in Kentucky for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 5,610.66 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
