The Royal Empire of Imperial States America is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Emperor Tex Cotton with an iron fist, and renowned for its prohibition of alcohol, complete lack of public education, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 19.272 billion Imperialists 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 large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Spirituality, Law & Order, and Industry also on the agenda, while Welfare and Education receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Richmond. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 92.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Imperial States American economy, worth a remarkable 4,612 trillion Imperial Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Furniture Restoration, Uranium Mining, and Basket Weaving. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 239,357 Imperial Credits, with the richest citizens earning 7.6 times as much as the poorest.

It is still not known if the commander in chief outranks the supreme commander, a baby's first breath is also a baby's first felony, the only way to escape lengthy prison terms is in a body bag, and red text rains down on the head of anyone who dares to step out of line (Imperial States America has found 2 easter eggs). Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Imperial States America's national animal is the Mini elephant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Church of ISA.

Imperial States America is ranked 20,799th in the world and 2nd in United Imperial Union for Most Stationary, with 1,584.97088145132 days.
