The Empire of 90023 is a gargantuan, efficient nation, renowned for its parental licensing program, avant-garde cinema, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 10.549 billion 90023ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 79.3%.

The frighteningly efficient 90023ian economy, worth a remarkable 2,224 trillion 9003s 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. 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 an amazing 210,843 9003s, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

Convicted crypto-miners are sent to the salt mines, the latest guided missile cruiser "Ship-1642" has received precisely zero column inches in the press, it's widely agreed that to tennis players love means nothing, and third world countries are rich in "I Love 90023 City" t-shirts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. 90023's national animal is the 9003, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

90023 is ranked 13,966^th in the world and 350^th in the Rejected Realms for Lowest Crime Rates, with 95.33 law-abiding acts per hour.
