The Borderlands of Imperii Americana is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Imperator Sheng Cormac with an iron fist, and renowned for its state-planned economy, compulsory military service, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 14.767 billion Americans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cormac. The average income tax rate is 52.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Imperii Americanan economy, worth 821 trillion Tremisses a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 55,663 Tremisses, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Americans believe manners maketh the leader, lavish state dinners in Cormac are the state's leading budgetary expenditure, the police think a properly conducted criminal investigation is a real pain, and the nation has opened its arms to an influx of refugees. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Imperii Americana's national animal is the Coyote, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Cult of the Eternal Void.

Imperii Americana is ranked 122,493^rd in the world and 5^th in The Phoenix Concordat for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 928.29 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
