The Rogue Nation of NikosParadise is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Niko The First And Only with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, keen interest in outer space, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 16.07 billion NikosParasites are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, 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 The VatoNikoCan. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Niko's Parasite economy, worth a remarkable 5,697 trillion Nikoes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Retail. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an amazing 354,516 Nikoes, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,512,407 per year while the poor average 16,696, a ratio of 150 to 1.

Card collectors duel to the death, people are bored of easy crossword puzzles, Niko's Parasite companies generally just fire employees in lieu of giving them vacation, and foreigners must sell an arm and a leg to afford surgery in NikosParadise. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force. NikosParadise's national animal is the drunken spider monkey, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Nikostianity.

NikosParadise is ranked 82,973^rd in the world and 4,646^th in Osiris for Most Extensive Public Healthcare, scoring 2,229.93 on the Theresa-Nightingale Rating.
