The Protectorate of Spice Harvester 139 is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its public floggings, rampant corporate plagiarism, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 8.541 billion Spice Harvester 139ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 37.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Spice Harvester 139ian economy, worth 895 trillion spices a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Gambling. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 104,823 spices, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 518,178 per year while the poor average 12,052, a ratio of 43.0 to 1.

Most Spice Harvester 139ian video games are banned in other countries, the nation's water should not be ingested while operating heavy machinery, politicians' financial records are locked up tighter than the nation's spice reserves, and running a hot dog stand is harder than achieving a doctorate. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Spice Harvester 139's national animal is the sandworm, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Spice Harvester 139 is ranked 124,402^nd in the world and 145^th in Jihad Army of the Emperor for Lowest Crime Rates, with 63.27 law-abiding acts per hour.
