The Borderlands of N72718 is a colossal, cultured nation, remarkable for its closed borders, aversion to nipples, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless, devout population of 5.896 billion N72718ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.
The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 89.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient N72718ian economy, worth 810 trillion nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnns a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 137,464 nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnns, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
High-income earners pay a 100% tax rate, blue sky thinkers are reminded that the firmament is actually more of a grey-ish colour, there's a lot of smoke from the nation's "green economy", and new laws are ignored if they don't have a tabloid-style headline. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. N72718's national animal is the nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
N72718 is ranked 90,762nd in the world and 1,042nd in Lazarus for Most Stationary, with 498.7990557684 days.
