The Confederation of South Dixieland is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Jefferson Davis with an even hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, enslaved workforce, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 3.092 billion Confederates are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The tiny, corrupt, moralistic government prioritizes Defense, although Industry, Law & Order, and Spirituality are also considered important, while Welfare and Social Policy receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Richmond. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Confederate economy, worth 450 trillion Confederate Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, and Soda Sales. Average income is an impressive 145,807 Confederate Dollars, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,026,789 per year while the poor average 7,012, a ratio of 146 to 1.

A stocking with a crooked seam or a tie without a full Windsor knot are grounds for instant dismissal, commuters travel in zigzags to avoid stalking accusations, private law firms are unheard of, and only senior nuclear power plant employees may use the control rods to warm up their lunches. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. South Dixieland's national animal is the Horse, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Evangelical Christianity.

South Dixieland is ranked 4,510^th in the world and 2^nd in America for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 8,675.73 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
