The Republic of SSN41 is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Daniel O'Connell with an iron fist, and notable for its disturbing lack of elderly people, avowedly heterosexual populace, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 2.886 billion SSN41ians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, 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 Dublin. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 75.9%.

The frighteningly efficient SSN41ian economy, worth 455 trillion bitcoins a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 157,733 bitcoins, with the richest citizens earning 9.7 times as much as the poorest.

Unemployed mercenaries drift the country looking for new careers, basic multiplication is all you need to know to have a child, the overhead luggage compartment is often full, and cheating spouses are required to undergo job training. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. SSN41's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Celtic Paganism.

SSN41 is ranked 134,494^th in the world and 3^rd in Maseru for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 737.83 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
