The Glowing of CIA is a massive, orderly nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 3.271 billion Glowies are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The tiny, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order and Education also on the agenda, while International Aid and Spirituality are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.2%.

The thriving American economy, worth 258 trillion dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Furniture Restoration, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 79,037 dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 279,766 per year while the poor average 16,122, a ratio of 17.4 to 1.

The country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, medical lawsuits are out of control, and the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. CIA's national animal is the eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

CIA is ranked 124,690th in the world and 1,959th in Ambition for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 75.5 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
