The Incorporated States of Employees of the Month is a gargantuan, pleasant nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, ban on automobiles, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 10.548 billion Employees of the Month 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 23.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Employee of the Monthian economy, worth 378 trillion dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Furniture Restoration, and Tourism. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 35,883 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Strange looking men with big red noses are found hiding behind bushes and inside dustbins, woefully uninformed voters cast their ballots at random, politicians always seem to take two steps forward then three steps back, and kindergartners' favourite dance move is the stop-drop-and-roll. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Employees of the Month's national animal is the wolf, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Employees of the Month is ranked 231,308^th in the world and 6^th in Republicans for Lowest Crime Rates, with 55.85 law-abiding acts per hour.
