The United States of Bougian is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Joe bob with an even hand, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, public floggings, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working population of 8.75 billion Bougianians 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 medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cosmicolon. The average income tax rate is 95.3%.
The frighteningly efficient Bougianian economy, worth a remarkable 3,246 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Book Publishing, Retail, and Tourism. Average income is an amazing 371,014 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.
