The Free Land of Eco nomics is a very large, safe nation, notable for its teetotalling pirates, ban on automobiles, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 337 million Americans are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 10.9%.

The frighteningly efficient American economy, worth 36.1 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 107,039 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.8 times as much as the poorest.

The government is continually probing the galaxy in search of alien life, copyright laws have been abolished, a milk bath costs more than bathing in money, and an increasing percentage of the population's youth have homosexual parents. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Eco nomics's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Eco nomics is ranked 60,990^th in the world and 11^th in Economic Development Zone for Safest, scoring 99.61 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
