The United States of Strongton is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by President Cody Cavendish-Beauclerk with an even hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, free-roaming dinosaurs, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, cheerful population of 2.513 billion Strongtonians 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, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Strongton City. The average income tax rate is 77.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Strongtonian economy, worth 437 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 174,261 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Translators have been hired to deal with the varying regional accents during national political debates, Strongtonians refer to transgender people with insults instead of pronouns, the nation's reinforced coffee tables are constructed to survive an atomic blast, and the inside lane of every highway is for parked vehicles only. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Strongton's national animal is the phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Strongton is ranked 17,867^th in the world and 29^th in United Kingdom for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 8,734.12 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
