The Union of Free States of America is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by The President with a fair hand, and remarkable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, public floggings, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless population of 26.403 billion Free Americans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The minute, corrupt government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Defense, with Industry and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Environment and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Americana. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Free American economy, worth a remarkable 7,737 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Soda Sales, and Retail. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 293,036 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Pristine wilderness has been trashed in the quest for cheaper oil, Free States of America's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region, torture is illegal, and same-sex marriages are increasingly common. Crime, especially youth-related, is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Free States of America's national animal is the Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is The Founders.

Free States of America is ranked 285,621^st in the world and 60^th in The Allied Republics for Highest Food Quality, scoring 4.78 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
