The Rogue Nation of Johnny Cash is a titanic, safe nation, notable for its anti-smoking policies, ubiquitous missile silos, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 10.173 billion Johnny Cashians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kingsland Arkansas. The average income tax rate is 73.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Johnny Cashian economy, worth 999 trillion songs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Automobile Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 98,239 songs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The deaf are perplexed when the weather report tells them that the wind will be "bringing some rain along the Nazi ghosts", shoppers carry protractors to verify their produce, Kingsland Arkansas has restaurants serving every meat from aardvark to zebra, and dangerous criminals are often 'accidentally' sent on one-way trips to Maxtopia. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Johnny Cash's national animal is the Bird of Paradise, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Johnny Cash is ranked 35,601^st in the world and 2^nd in Tennessee for Most Extensive Public Healthcare, scoring 3,708.29 on the Theresa-Nightingale Rating.
