The Union of City States Nation is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by JR Ewing with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, barren, inhospitable landscape, and parental licensing program. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 22.315 billion City Staters 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 minute, corrupt government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Reading. Income tax is unheard of.
The frighteningly efficient City States Nationian economy, worth a remarkable 9,251 trillion Lire a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an amazing 414,564 Lire, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.
Airport users are more worried about radiation than terrorism, JR Ewing reduces citizens' commute times by giving away their homes, escaped birthday balloons are torpedoed out of the sky, and customer satisfaction with online delivery services is at an all time high. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. City States Nation's national animal is the Armadillo, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Industrialism.
City States Nation is ranked 662nd in the world and 11th in the South Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 23,810.99 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
