The United States of Emaha is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by El Presidente with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, ban on automobiles, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.168 billion Emahans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Emaha City. The average income tax rate is 74.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Emahan economy, worth 340 trillion Esoes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 107,477 Esoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens cannot change their light bulbs without approval from an international committee, preschools put children down for naps with milk, cookies, and a gruesome story of vengeance, lawyers turn down litigation cases and corporate work in order to focus on lucrative public defence work, and excited shovel-bearing geeks wander the countryside. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Emaha's national animal is the Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Secular Humanism.

Emaha is ranked 203,046^th in the world and 440^th in The Free Nations Region for Lowest Overall Tax Burden, scoring -85.69 on the Hayek Index.
