The Republic of The American Commonwealths is a tiny, cultured nation, renowned for its frequent executions, irreverence towards religion, and absence of drug laws. The hard-working, democratic population of 14 million Americans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 27.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Americans economy, worth 853 billion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Cheese Exports, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 60,958 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

A few people seem to spend their whole time complaining, newspaper stories fill several pages with colorful adjectives, Information Technology facilities are being turned into eagle habitats, and charged suspects often have to wait years before the courts have room to judge their trial. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The American Commonwealths's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

The American Commonwealths is ranked 322,057^th in the world and 4,175^th in The North Pacific for Largest Populations, with 14.0 million capita.
