The Republic of Swissconsin is a massive, efficient nation, renowned for its public floggings, keen interest in outer space, and infamous sell-swords. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.828 billion Swissconsinians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 65.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Swissconsinian economy, worth 566 trillion Francs a year, is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 117,279 Francs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

Careless Maxémon Trainers have been the cause of numerous search and rescue operations, citizens are prohibited from raising their voice above thirty decibels in commercial districts, TV shows must meet strict ethnicity quotas, and fashion magazine covers finally display realistic body images following photo-manipulation becoming illegal. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Swissconsin's national animal is the Dachs, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Swissconsin is ranked 326,435^th in the world and 1^st in The Call of The Void for Most Pacifist, with 4.74 cheeks turned per day.
