The Free Land of Eco nomics is a very large, safe nation, notable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, keen interest in outer space, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 236 million Americans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small government is primarily concerned with Education, with Industry and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Welfare are ignored. The average income tax rate is 11.9%.

The frighteningly efficient American economy, worth 21.8 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is 92,542 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.

Economists have been named Invertebrates of the Year, practising saying 'how now brown cow' is an essential part of holiday planning, cheese lovers have a case of the bleus, and the jackhammer is considered a tool of artistic criticism. 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 35,898^th in the world and 2^nd in Economic Development Zone for Most Developed, scoring 80.81 on the Human Development Index.
