The Rogue Nation of MSN 66 is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Highlander with an iron fist, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, parental licensing program, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.462 billion MSN 66ians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Andrews. The average income tax rate is 78.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient MSN 66ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,609 trillion florins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 249,038 florins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

The "Underwear of Women in Power" issue of The Andrews Times is sold out, the nation has nearly as many history museums as MSN 66ians, the nation's universities are often mistaken for foreign embassies, and parents are relieved they no longer need to help with their kids' algebra homework. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. MSN 66's national animal is the lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Cards.

MSN 66 is ranked 267,244^th in the world and 464^th in NationStates for Most Primitive, scoring -224.25 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
