The Borderlands of AC DC is a mammoth, orderly nation, renowned for its digital currency, frequent executions, and aversion to nipples. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.277 billion AC DCians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sydney. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 52.2%.

The frighteningly efficient AC DCian economy, worth 881 trillion songs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 106,498 songs, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 333,450 per year while the poor average 26,079, a ratio of 12.8 to 1.

A soldier's body is a temple, teachers prefer to give 'Maybe, Maybe Not' tests when dealing with sensitive subjects, garden stores are not allowed to sell water butts, and students at universities think exercise bikes are pieces of abstract art. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. AC DC's national animal is the hellbender lizard, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

AC DC is ranked 31,112^th in the world and 2^nd in Australia for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 2,615.72 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
