The United States of Usaint is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Chairman Grant Gentry with an even hand, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, complete lack of prisons, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 4.031 billion Usaintians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Saffron Core. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 53.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Usaintian economy, worth 967 trillion Remnoisks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an amazing 240,051 Remnoisks, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,342,764 per year while the poor average 21,337, a ratio of 62.9 to 1.

A firework a day does not in fact keep the doctor away, getting an infected tattoo is considered a rite of passage in Usaint, the public transport system has been eliminated, and people say that smog must be good for you because of its healthy green colour. Crime is totally unknown. Usaint's national animal is the Harpy Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Usaint is ranked 85,714^th in the world and 11^th in Banfield for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 53.31 Effective Tax Rate.
