The United Socialist States of Forgotten Outcasts is a colossal, socially progressive nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working population of 3.341 billion Forgotten Outcastsians 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 53.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Forgotten Outcastsian economy, worth 150 trillion Deniers a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Book Publishing, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 45,173 Deniers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Landless farmers wander forlornly in the government's many national parks, voters must frequently select what they view as the lesser of two evils on the ballot, every citizen sounds like a television news anchor, and the government sends submarines to retrieve bodies from shipwrecked submarines. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Forgotten Outcasts's national animal is the Turtle.

Forgotten Outcasts is ranked 135,022nd in the world and 8th in Puppet Containment Facility for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 751.38 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
