The Rogue Nation of MSN 18 is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Highlander with an iron fist, and remarkable for its ritual sacrifices, avant-garde cinema, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 9.377 billion MSN 18ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
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 Andrews. The average income tax rate is 48.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient MSN 18ian economy, worth a remarkable 2,473 trillion bitcoins a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 263,745 bitcoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.
Old folks reminisce about the last time someone was acquitted of a crime, most believe it doesn't hurt to embrace free trade, Highlander's peyote-induced "let's all just be friends" speech is trending world-wide, and the fattest folk in MSN 18 look to be the happiest ones. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. MSN 18's national animal is the tiger, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Cards.
MSN 18 is ranked 7,129th in the world and 101st in NationStates for Lowest Crime Rates, with 108.08 law-abiding acts per hour.
