The Iron Galactic Imperium of Socialist Holy American Empire is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Emperor Heinrich VI with an iron fist, and remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, digital currency, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 4.405 billion Imperial Amerikans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of White Palace. The average income tax rate is 67.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Socialist Holy American Empirean economy, worth 404 trillion Imperial Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, highly specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Trout Farming, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 91,869 Imperial Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Airplane passenger seat sizes and ticket prices are both first-class, jaywalking is punishable by public flogging, the nation's soldiers are considered the best-dressed in The East Pacific, and scientists earn more grant money for reproducing old experiments than trying anything new. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Socialist Holy American Empire's national animal is the Imperial Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Ilúvatarism.

Socialist Holy American Empire is ranked 16,315^th in the world and 458^th in The East Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 83.92 Law-abiding Acts Per Hour.
