The Planetary Conquerors of Manifold Usurpers is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Usurper Judaa Marr with an iron fist, and notable for its smutty television, suspicion of poets, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 19.308 billion Usurpers 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 relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Courage To Question. The average income tax rate is 16.4%.

The powerhouse Usurper economy, worth a remarkable 1,917 trillion energy credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is notable. Average income is 99,332 energy credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

CDs are regularly copy-protected, government popup ads are springing up like weeds, the government is cracking down on subversive groups, and the nation leads Sid Meiers Alpha Centauri in per capita stalking. Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a well-funded police force. Manifold Usurpers's national animal is the mind worm, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Manifold Usurpers is ranked 168,728^th in the world and 11^th in Sid Meiers Alpha Centauri for Lowest Crime Rates, with 59.41 law-abiding acts per hour.
