The Fractured Republic of Greater Newmerican States is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by President Ryan Beaumont with a fair hand, and notable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, pith helmet sales, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 6.889 billion Newmericans are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aduenam City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 15.8%.

The powerhouse Newmerican economy, worth 651 trillion Newmerican Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Book Publishing, and Information Technology. Average income is 94,582 Newmerican Dollars, with the richest citizens earning 8.2 times as much as the poorest.

A firework a day does not in fact keep the doctor away, citizens have to dodge their neighbors' drones while getting the morning paper, President Ryan Beaumont is famed for giving great back rubs, and sullen teenagers in bright orange 'community payback' onesies can be seen picking litter at the roadside. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Greater Newmerican States's national animal is the Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Greater Newmerican States is ranked 107,624^th in the world and 11^th in CISB Reforged for Most Patriotic, with 15.58 flags saluted per person per day.
