The Confederacy of Los estados confederates de Mexico is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Vicepresidente Gabriel Ríos with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, deadly medical pandemics, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 1.396 billion Confederate Mexicans 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 medium-sized, corrupt, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of San luis Potosi. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 63.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Confederate Mexican economy, worth 246 trillion Salvadoran colons a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Gambling, and Information Technology. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 176,825 Salvadoran colons, with the richest citizens earning 8.6 times as much as the poorest.

A surprising number of police officers have been arrested for coyote sacrifices, families must live in a village for a century before they get any say in how it runs, at the edge of the final frontier space's biggest missile platform is about to unfold, and it's considered providence that the political lexicon contains a syrup of company slogans. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Los estados confederates de Mexico's national animal is the coyote, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Los estados confederates de Mexico is ranked 21,894^th in the world and 689^th in the South Pacific for Smartest Citizens, with 58.63 quips per hour.
