The Rogue Nation of DSN24 is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Dave with an iron fist, and notable for its compulsory military service, frequent executions, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, cynical, humorless, devout population of 3.171 billion DSN24ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Buenos Aires. The average income tax rate is 66.7%.
The frighteningly efficient DSN24ian economy, worth 550 trillion marks a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 173,529 marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.
Lumberjacks only use certified eco-friendly chainsaws, the military has declared that 'a woman's place is in the mess hall', smart fridges sing the praises of Cliodhna for fear of being iced, and the government believes there is no problem that raising taxes won't fix. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. DSN24's national animal is the lion, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Cliodhna.
DSN24 is ranked 33,903rd in the world and 2nd in A Modern World for Most Conservative, scoring 80.08 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
