The Jingoistic States of Armstrongs Landing is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Prime Minister Gabriel Armstrong with an even hand, and renowned for its national health service, rampant corporate plagiarism, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, cheerful population of 29.61 billion Armstrongers are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The relatively small government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Education, Administration, and Industry also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Miss Fortune Promontory. The average income tax rate is 21.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Armstrongs Landingian economy, worth a remarkable 7,928 trillion Rallods a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 267,760 Rallods, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Hidden bedroom-cams are installed to catch mothers doing their kids' homework, a passport is literally priceless, real estate agencies are being replaced by naval recruitment offices, and manufacturers of biodegradable plastics have to wait for months to show evidence of organic decomposition. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent. Armstrongs Landing's national animal is the Shrike, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Armstrongs Landing is ranked 5,406th in the world and 2nd in Coalition of Sovereign Nations for Most Stationary, with 3,107.7063444 days.
