The Pink Holy Lucky Christmas of United States of Rhodes is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Santa Claus with a fair hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, daily referendums, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 4.946 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, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yggdrassil. The average income tax rate is 69.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Rhodesian economy, worth 685 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 Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 138,663 Candy Cane Gold Bars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

Scenic mountain valleys are flooded with water as damming projects get underway, citizens finish cleaning up after the annual National Treasure Hunt just in time for the next one, children are raised bilingual from an early age, and the "Underwear of Women in Power" issue of The Yggdrassil Times is sold out. 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 13,384^th in the world and 604^th in The North Pacific for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 11,022.4 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
