The United States of Imperiuse is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Der Preßidös with an even hand, and remarkable for its national health service, complete lack of prisons, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 1.523 billion Impöhns have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Servisö. The average income tax rate is 90.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Impösn economy, worth 181 trillion Gold Löhns a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 119,217 Gold Löhns, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Commuters are denied boarding for attempting to bring packed lunches onto trains, priests roam the streets with child-catcher nets, the government is in utter turmoil following the recent abolishment of the tax code, and religious households enthusiastically use whips in private. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Imperiuse's national animal is the Silver Feathered Condor, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Aspideus.

Imperiuse is ranked 15,302^nd in the world and 698^th in The North Pacific for Most Beautiful Environments, with 1,219.21 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
