The United States of Gluebucket is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Leader with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 12.485 billion Gluebucketians 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 Healthcare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gluebucket City. The average income tax rate is 26.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Gluebucketian economy, worth a remarkable 1,747 trillion Dollars a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 139,958 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Commuters and their desktops both bemoan their hard drives, the tenet of free speech is held dear, it is illegal to have the wrong clock time showing on your microwave oven, and the official Gluebucketian Phrase Book weighs as much as a small child. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gluebucket's national animal is the Grey Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

Gluebucket is ranked 119,634th in the world and 505th in United States of America for Most Stationary, with 300.16996066888 days.
