The Rogue Nation of DSN97 is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Dave with an iron fist, and remarkable for its state-planned economy, avant-garde cinema, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 1.642 billion DSN97ians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.
The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Buenos Aires. The average income tax rate is 56.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The very strong DSN97ian economy, worth 169 trillion deniers 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 a large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Trout Farming, Information Technology, and Tourism. 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 impressive 103,010 deniers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The nationalistic national anthem inspires citizens to literally spit at foreigners, armed security details escort librarians to their homes, commuters travel in zigzags to avoid stalking accusations, and concert halls sport signs proclaiming "No Shorts, Sandals or Swastikas". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. DSN97's national animal is the eel, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Cliodhna.
DSN97 is ranked 24,492nd in the world and 3rd in Poland for Most Corrupt Governments, with 86.11 kickbacks per hour.
