The Republic of Nerd Farmer 9 is a mammoth, safe nation, remarkable for its digital currency, ban on automobiles, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, devout population of 5.832 billion Nerd Farmer 9ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 44.0%.

The thriving Nerd Farmer 9ian economy, worth 469 trillion bitcoins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 80,453 bitcoins, with the richest citizens earning 8.7 times as much as the poorest.

Lending firms are subject to strict government regulations, interviewees for teaching jobs are waterboarded to "reveal undesirable histories", the upper class have been throwing riots after hunting was recently banned, and a good deed is rewarded with a thank you note attached to a deportation order. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nerd Farmer 9's national animal is the leopard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
