The United States of Ideal Capital Equality is a small, orderly nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 23 million Ideal Equalityian Capitalists are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The minute, pro-business, well-organized government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.5%.

The thriving Ideal Capital Equalityian economy, worth 1.83 trillion Capital Dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Basket Weaving, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 79,596 Capital Dollars, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 332,219 per year while the poor average 12,445, a ratio of 26.7 to 1.

People are left scratching their heads at the government's decisions, the state has declared war on the environment and environmentalists by association, pregnant hitchhikers with signs requesting rides to "competent care" are a common sight on Ideal Capital Equalityian roads, and bizarre-looking creatures called 'wolfdogs' dominate wildlife preserves. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Ideal Capital Equality's national animal is the wolf, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Ideal Capital Equality is ranked 7,833^rd in the world and 167^th in The North Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 6,091.55 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
