“I was ridin' shotgun with my hair undone”

The Slamming Screen Doors of Our Song is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its public floggings, compulsory military service, and disturbing lack of elderly people. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 6.323 billion Our Songians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Industry, Administration, and Education are also considered important. The average income tax rate is 27.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Our Songian economy, worth 683 trillion way you laughs a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 108,104 way you laughs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Museums stand half-empty as all foreign exhibits are returned to their countries of origin, fashion magazine covers finally display realistic body images following photo-manipulation becoming illegal, auditors are gutting every governmental department, and a new guerrilla marketing campaign for tap water involves government agents spraying random citizens with hose water. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Our Song's national animal is the slamming screen door, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Our Song is ranked 12,366^th in the world and 19^th in Stereo Hearts for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 78,375.5 Standard Monetary Units.
