The Federal Kingdom of Northern American Federated States is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by King Sean X with an iron fist, and remarkable for its public floggings, fear of technology, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical population of 9.398 billion Americans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, well-organized morass — juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The City of Washington. The average income tax rate is 91.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Northern American Federated Statesian economy, worth 776 trillion CyberDollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Uranium Mining, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 82,603 CyberDollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Money grows on trees, immigrants who carry knives on them are presumed to be chefs, no-one can foil the ambitions of Big Aluminium, and college students make ends meet by selling their kidneys. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Northern American Federated States's national animal is the Snake, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Catholic Christianity.

Northern American Federated States is ranked 12,223^rd in the world and 1^st in South Newtown for Most Beautiful Environments, with 1,405.99 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
