The Unassuming Puppet State of Americad is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Joseph with an iron fist, and notable for its vat-grown people, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 45.1 billion follower of Josephs are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is dominated by the Department of Defense, with Industry also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Environment receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Joseph City. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Josephic economy, worth an astonishing 47,478 trillion monies a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is a breathtaking 1,052,747 monies, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 3,475,104 per year while the poor average 238,599, a ratio of 14.6 to 1.

People are always complaining about dam builders running behind schedule, former state leaders include a TV comic and a cowboy actor, the nation's exceedingly polite children have often been referred to as "robots" by international media, and public urination is on the increase. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Americad's national animal is the viper, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Josephism.

Americad is ranked 53^rd in the world and 3^rd in Balder for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 219,095.39 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
