The Rogue Nation of 1482 is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Vulpus with an even hand, and notable for its daily referendums, strictly enforced bedtime, and lack of airports. The compassionate, cheerful population of 14.29 billion Fourteenites enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — prioritizes Education, with Environment, Healthcare, and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Reiniger-Stadt. The average income tax rate is 99.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Fourtinian economy, worth a remarkable 2,584 trillion Fluffs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 180,843 Fluffs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Fewer people are bathing as citizens must show ration stamps before they can turn on their faucets, vote-counting is replacing kitchen patrol as the least glamorous army work, the slowest students feel vaguely targeted by their Mendelian Inheritance coursework, and Reiniger-Stadt University is said to be the modern-day Tower of Babel. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. 1482's national animal is the Unicorn, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

1482 is ranked 65,588^th in the world and 2,124^th in Lazarus for Nudest, with 195.25 cheeks per square mile.
