The Republic of District Line 9 is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its burgeoning squirrel population. The hard-nosed population of 10.698 billion District Line 9ians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 25.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The District Line 9ian economy, worth 584 trillion rubles a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Arms Manufacturing, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 54,620 rubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Employees who skip lunch to avoid sub-par cafeteria food risk getting fired, the might of the entire District Line 9ian Navy is focused on fifty bemused spear-throwing islanders, funeral directors are frequently looking at their watches during funerals, and Harry Potter books are banned. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. District Line 9's national animal is the squirrel, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

District Line 9 is ranked 169,813^th in the world and 5^th in New West Indies for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 675.73 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
