The Republic of Spec Ops Trooper 17 is a massive, safe nation, notable for its zero percent divorce rate, state-planned economy, and otherworldly petting zoo. The compassionate population of 1.395 billion Spec Ops Trooper 17ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 40.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Spec Ops Trooper 17ian economy, worth 45.7 trillion Credits 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 slick, highly efficient black market in Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. 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 32,776 Credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Military parades quietly tiptoe their way through the streets, Leader's luxurious new home has been designated as a protected cultural heritage site, black tea is only available on the black market, and the government considers it a sacred duty to video bikini-clad beach swimmers. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Spec Ops Trooper 17's national animal is the Droid, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Spec Ops Trooper 17 is ranked 299,285^th in the world and 4,785^th in eta for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring -10.72 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
