The United States of Scutarie is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Thomas Brooks with an even hand, and remarkable for its national health service, ubiquitous missile silos, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 4.384 billion Scutarians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chrysopolis. The average income tax rate is 63.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Scutarian economy, worth 530 trillion USS Dollars a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 120,971 USS Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Protestors are soaking piles of USS Dollars in blood to make a point about government incomes, the country routinely whitewashes uncomfortable parts of its history, Thomas Brooks has killer fashion sense, and prolonged government investigations are a common revenge tactic among spurned significant others. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Scutarie's national animal is the Bald Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Judaïsme-Christianisme-Islam.

Scutarie is ranked 24,238^th in the world and 469^th in Europe for Highest Food Quality, scoring 102.92 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
