The Pink Holy Lucky Christmas of United States of Rhodes is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Santa Claus with an even hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.018 billion Rhodesians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yggdrassil. The average income tax rate is 71.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Rhodesian economy, worth 703 trillion Candy Cane Gold Bars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 140,270 Candy Cane Gold Bars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

AI citizens are criticized for being robotic, modelling agencies send their clients to work in nursing homes, knitters are arrested for carrying needles in their bags, and civil servants are no longer allowed to cross their t's. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. United States of Rhodes's national animal is the Bat, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Athyism.

United States of Rhodes is ranked 149,460^th in the world and 3,987^th in The North Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 9.21 flags saluted per person per day.
