The Incorporated States of File Cabinet is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Peter Gibbons with a fair hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 4.872 billion File Cabinetians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, corrupt, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Initech Global HQ. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.7%.

The frighteningly efficient File Cabinetian economy, worth 722 trillion Paperworks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Soda Sales, and Gambling. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 148,371 Paperworks, with the richest citizens earning 7.2 times as much as the poorest.

Interest in globalism never flags, relations with Dàguó have warmed from frosty to chilly, a shipwreck is everyone's fault but the captain's, and the standard police uniform now comes with several colours of belt. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. File Cabinet's national animal is the Clippy, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

File Cabinet is ranked 209,636^th in the world and 1^st in Office Space for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -2.79 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
