The United Stratocratic States of The Strategic Air Command is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by General Curtis LeMay with an iron fist, and notable for its pith helmet sales, public floggings, and avowedly heterosexual populace. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 27.34 billion Airmen are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order and Industry are also considered important, while Environment and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Offutt Air Force Base. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 92.6%.

The frighteningly efficient SAC economy, worth an astonishing 35,132 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is a breathtaking 1,285,017 Dollars, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 6,140,549 per year while the poor average 157,697, a ratio of 38.9 to 1.

Possession of tomato seeds with intent to garden is a criminal offence, Maxtopians are both starving and giddy after the SAC military unleashed its biological weapons, police drones follow every suspected Peeping Tom, and forty-year-old men are asked for their ID before watching the latest pony cartoon movies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force. The Strategic Air Command's national animal is the Falcon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christianity.

The Strategic Air Command is ranked 302,125th in the world and 24th in The Allied States for Most Extensive Civil Rights, with 3 Martin Luther King, Jr. Units.
