The Empire of Appalachya 92 is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 1.063 billion Appalachya 92ians 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 minute, pro-business government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.3%.

The very strong Appalachya 92ian economy, worth 61.3 trillion Dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Trout Farming, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 57,676 Dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 204,154 per year while the poor average 11,764, a ratio of 17.4 to 1.

Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Appalachya 92's national animal is the Eagle, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Appalachya 92 is ranked 233,409^th in the world and 1^st in Axis of Evil for Nicest Citizens, with 11.33 average smiles per day.
