The Federal Republic of United Adaikes is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Luke Salazar with an iron fist, and renowned for its punitive income tax rates, restrictive gun laws, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 2.906 billion United Adaikesians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Adaikes Central. The average income tax rate is 95.2%.

The frighteningly efficient United Adaikesian economy, worth 485 trillion florins a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Cheese Exports, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 167,146 florins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Older citizens lament over the loss of law and order, tax rises are attributed to divine will, census workers are having a hard time figuring out who is actually living in United Adaikes after the ban on emigration was lifted, and concussed pantherball players cannot remember their lineup position. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. United Adaikes's national animal is the panther, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

United Adaikes is ranked 29,540^th in the world and 411^th in the West Pacific for Highest Economic Output, with 485 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
