The Imperialism of The US is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its ban on automobiles, suspicion of poets, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 28.274 billion USians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The relatively small, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The US City. The average income tax rate is 10.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient USian economy, worth a remarkable 5,029 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 177,878 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

The number of students attending university has reached a record high, even in the most hardened climate scientists break down at the sound of a single drop of rain, scientists take credit every time it rains in Jupiter, and elementary school children develop thousand-yard stares. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The US's national animal is the eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

The US is ranked 311,578^th in the world and 2^nd in Jupiter for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 17.08 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
