The United States of Daniel55 is a colossal, orderly nation, renowned for its ritual sacrifices, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 4.733 billion Daniel55ians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 40.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Daniel55ian economy, worth 561 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 118,464 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

Homeowners on prime real estate have been seen dodging giant bulldozers with cartoon characters painted on them, back-alley circumcision clinics are popping up all over the nation, the Daniel55 City Prison Revue puts on a better stage show than anything in the Theatre District, and livestock mutilations are on the rise. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Daniel55's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Daniel55 is ranked 270,292^nd in the world and 56^th in New Bilderberg Group for Most Extensive Civil Rights, with 23.5 Martin Luther King, Jr. Units.
