The United States of Tomorrow and yesterday is a gargantuan, pleasant nation, ruled by Prelature Pope with an even hand, and notable for its state-planned economy, zero percent divorce rate, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 36.499 billion Yesterdayans 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Today. The average income tax rate is 60.1%.

The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 30,333 pennies, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.
