The Nomadic Peoples of Distracted is a mammoth, safe nation, notable for its enslaved workforce, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 8.118 billion Distractedians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 24.5%.

The Distractedian economy, worth 396 trillion Credits a year, is led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 48,867 Credits, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 182,932 per year while the poor average 9,134, a ratio of 20.0 to 1.

There are traffic jams at sea as diligent customs officers check every part of every ship, popular cartoon characters frequently appear in government-sponsored PSAs reminding students to say no to drugs, rumours have it that a secret police is responsible for the recent spate of missing persons, and battlefield gains are quickly lost when enemies don't respect a time-out. Crime is well under control, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Distracted's national animal is the Cow.

Distracted is ranked 244,256^th in the world and 5^th in MHBs New Frontier for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 40.78 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
