The United States of Scoutistan is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Lord Robert Baden-Powell with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 11.256 billion Scouts enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Environment, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Treasure Island. The average income tax rate is 72.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Scoutistanian economy, worth a remarkable 1,310 trillion Merit Badges a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 116,437 Merit Badges, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

It's not only teenagers who mess around with fake IDs, the Ministry of Health has reported a sharp increase in the incidence of delayed menopause, actively encouraging climate change is helping reduce winter fuel costs, and stray dogs and children root through the trash for snacks. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Scoutistan's national animal is the Black Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Scout Oath and Law.

Scoutistan is ranked 186,146^th in the world and 7,486^th in Lazarus for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 262.69 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
