The Glorious Nation of United States of Buffaloia is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Central Planning with an even hand, and renowned for its parental licensing program, smutty television, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, humorless population of 16.884 billion Buffaloians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Buffalo City. The average income tax rate is 98.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Buffaloian economy, worth a remarkable 2,232 trillion Buffaloian Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism. Average income is an impressive 132,242 Buffaloian Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Wars of expansion are described as "peacekeeping operations", excited shovel-bearing geeks wander the countryside, translators have been hired to deal with the varying regional accents during national political debates, and foragers descend on national cemeteries for 'all-you-can-dig-up' extravaganzas. Crime is totally unknown. United States of Buffaloia's national animal is the Buffalo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

United States of Buffaloia is ranked 32,083^rd in the world and 921^st in The Communist Bloc for Most Income Equality, scoring 70.15 on the Marx-Engels Emancipation Scale.
