The Republic of Codename33 is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, feral children, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 7.353 billion Codename33ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 27.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The powerhouse Codename33ian economy, worth 516 trillion florins a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is notable. Average income is 70,233 florins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.
A ban on robots in disguise has transformed the entertainment industry, the weather report is the prisoners' favourite programme, doctors prescribe videos of political debates to patients with insomnia, and restaurateurs put a lot of effort into persuading customers to accept wafer-thin mints. Crime is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Codename33's national animal is the bison, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Codename33 is ranked 44,924th in the world and 335th in Artificial Solar System for Highest Poor Incomes, with 45,075.55 Standard Monetary Units.
