The American Stats of Virlinia is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by President Ron DeSantis with an even hand, and notable for its triple-decker prams, daily referendums, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 11.314 billion Americans are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Washington DC. The average income tax rate is 95.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Virlinian economy, worth a remarkable 6,897 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is a breathtaking 609,673 Dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,939,167 per year while the poor average 145,930, a ratio of 13.3 to 1.

Wait staff claim to like it when odorous customers flirt with them, hammering a nail into a wall is an effective death sentence, the bonfire of the old paper records can be seen for miles around Washington DC, and a suspicious number of male students have joined the Ladies' Wrestling League. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Virlinia's national animal is the Bald Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Virlinia is ranked 4,034th in the world and 6th in Union Mundial for Most Cultured, scoring 187 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
