The United States of Simonation is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Donald Trump with an iron fist, and remarkable for its enslaved workforce, zero percent divorce rate, and digital currency. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 46.54 billion Simonis 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 government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, well-organized morass — juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Miami. The average income tax rate is 97.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Simoni economy, worth a remarkable 5,607 trillion United States dollars a year, is extremely specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining. Average income is an impressive 120,489 United States dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Requests to "pass the salt" are supported by tank divisions, the act of reporting blasphemy is known as 'Orthodoxxing', dealers go from pushing drugs to pushing up daisies, and class boundaries start and end with the firmness of local tomatoes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Simonation's national animal is the bald eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Christianity.

Simonation is ranked 318,162^nd in the world and 14^th in Bigtopia for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 21.06 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
