The United States of Juddlight is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by Samson with a fair hand, and remarkable for its conspicuous electricity pylons, irreverence towards religion, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 8.483 billion Juddlightians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Samway City. The average income tax rate is 83.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Juddlightian economy, worth a remarkable 1,292 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 152,313 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Giggling elementary school newspaper reporters want to know why Samson is a silly poophead, the state auctions off combat drones to fund war reparations, companies have begun running campaigns to stop people from remembering their brand name, and teenagers claim that morning paper rounds are performance art. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Juddlight's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Venturism.

Juddlight is ranked 189,849^th in the world and 382^nd in Starlight for Least Corrupt Governments, with 92.56 percentage of bribes refused.
