The Modern Hellhole of Individualist Pursuit is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Century of the Self with a fair hand, and remarkable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, sprawling nuclear power plants, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 6.652 billion Atomized Individuals 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, corrupt, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Global Retail Zone. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Atomized Individualistian economy, worth a remarkable 2,036 trillion Clownbucks a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Soda Sales, Gambling, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 306,113 Clownbucks, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,202,039 per year while the poor average 13,706, a ratio of 160 to 1.

A chain of pubs that cater solely to children has recently been unveiled, violently opinionated speakers can be heard preaching their hateful views on every street corner, one lone government employee can be seen hunting for the elusive stray white dog, and teenagers across the country are celebrating the defeat of a national curfew bill. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Individualist Pursuit's national animal is the Consoomer, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The Saturn Control Matrix.

Individualist Pursuit is ranked 286,148th in the world and 2nd in Hydrogenated Seed Oil Faction for Most Income Equality, scoring 0.62 on the Marx-Engels Emancipation Scale.
