The United States of Unequal Prosperity is a huge, orderly nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, zero percent divorce rate, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 526 million Unequal Prosperityians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 27.7%.

The all-consuming Unequal Prosperityian economy, worth 46.3 trillion Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Retail. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is 88,068 Dollars, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 339,259 per year while the poor average 15,724, a ratio of 21.6 to 1.

The local custom of Biking With The Cars sends tourists home bemused or in body-bags, the end of autumn is celebrated with a bonfire of designer bags, the government conducts negotiations with drawings after firing multilinguals for treason, and it's hard to speak ill of the dead when you don't speak of them at all. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Unequal Prosperity's national animal is the Bald Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Unequal Prosperity is ranked 127,349^th in the world and 131^st in Bozarkia for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 81.7 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
