The United Socialist States of Pusid Ughter is a massive, cultured nation, notable for its compulsory military service, daily referendums, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 1.831 billion Pusid Ughterians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Swan City. The average income tax rate is 67.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Pusid Ughterian economy, worth 251 trillion lire a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 137,487 lire, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation has welcomed its expats back with open arms, international television adverts praise the nation as a worker's paradise, squeaky high prepubescent voices recite the patriotic poem "Hail to The Leader!" before each meal, and lawyers spend as much time preparing their make-up as they do their briefs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pusid Ughter's national animal is the swan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Pusid Ughter is ranked 9,494^th in the world and 69^th in the West Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 64.96 flags saluted per person per day.
