The United States of Hammerica is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by President Frank Zeidler with an even hand, and notable for its state-planned economy, compulsory military service, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 2.203 billion Hammericans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Washington DC. The average income tax rate is 71.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Hammerican economy, worth 23.1 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Cheese Exports, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 10,483 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Hammerica has one of the largest offshore wind farms in the world, at least 1% of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs budget goes to President Frank Zeidler's wardrobe, the government has declined to declare any particular religion as its 'official' one, and election ballot papers are so long that unused ones are recycled as toilet roll. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hammerica's national animal is the Bald Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Catholic Communism.

Hammerica is ranked 25,579th in the world and 399th in the West Pacific for Nicest Citizens, with 20.7 average smiles per day.
