The Rogue Nation of CSX-27 is a massive, orderly nation, renowned for its frequent executions, compulsory vegetarianism, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 1.737 billion CSX-27ians, 1.129 billion of whom are zombies, 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 medium-sized, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 31.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient CSX-27ian economy, worth 79.4 trillion kina a year, is led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Retail, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 45,728 kina, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

The practice of capital punishment proves divisive, business owners return from long vacations to find their factories have been turned into homeless shelters, "The Daily Sacrifice" is a routine segment of morning news shows, and people who tease dwarfs are being cut down to size. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. CSX-27's national animal is the bison, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

CSX-27 is ranked 217,218^th in the world and 3^rd in SolarFlare for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector, scoring 918.09 on the Charon Conveyancy Index.
