The United States of Strigberg is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Dieter Swife with an even hand, and remarkable for its daily referendums, ubiquitous missile silos, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 3.236 billion Strigbergers enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nazsville. The average income tax rate is 89.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Strigbergian economy, worth 494 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 152,852 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Boats straying just metres away from the shore will raise the ire of the Coast Guard, the nation is currently revamping its entire education system, airplane passengers who purchase "basic economy" tickets are often assigned seats in the lavatory, and most people suffer from some form of hearing loss. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Strigberg's national animal is the Blue Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Judaism.

Strigberg is ranked 159,795^th in the world and 962^nd in 10000 Islands for Highest Drug Use, scoring 51 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
