The Rogue Nation of 1482 is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Vulpus with an even hand, and notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, rampant corporate plagiarism, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cheerful population of 13.088 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, although Environment, Healthcare, and Administration are also considered important, while Spirituality is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Reiniger-Stadt. The average income tax rate is 99.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Fourtinian economy, worth a remarkable 2,375 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. Average income is an impressive 181,471 Fluffs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Hospitals fear government fines more than terrorist ransoms, one can wake up in 1482 and have breakfast in Bigtopia, unemployed accountants keep double-entry ledgers of their benefit claims, and the question "please would you...?" is usually laden with passive aggression. 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 9,116^th in the world and 518^th in Lazarus for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 426.71 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
