The United States of Scoutistan is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Lord Robert Baden-Powell with an even hand, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, daily referendums, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 11.224 billion Scouts enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Environment, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Treasure Island. The average income tax rate is 71.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Scoutistanian economy, worth a remarkable 1,334 trillion Merit Badges a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 118,913 Merit Badges, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

Government officials have to mortgage their homes to make ends meet, it's not only teenagers who mess around with fake IDs, the Ministry of Health has reported a sharp increase in the incidence of delayed menopause, and actively encouraging climate change is helping reduce winter fuel costs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Scoutistan's national animal is the Black Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Scout Oath and Law.

Scoutistan is ranked 38,405^th in the world and 1,479^th in Lazarus for Largest Populations, with 11.2 billion capita.
