The Protectorate of Spice Harvester 417 is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its public floggings, prohibition of alcohol, and digital currency. The hard-nosed, devout population of 8.387 billion Spice Harvester 417ians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Environment. The average income tax rate is 39.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Spice Harvester 417ian economy, worth 718 trillion spices a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 85,621 spices, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Prisons are filled with the cackles and sobs of a deranged inmate population, daisy chain gangs plant flowers and pick up litter, a signed affidavit from a prominent anti-corruption advocate declares that he is in fact a crook after all, and visual acuity is worsening amongst teenagers. Crime, especially youth-related, is a major problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Spice Harvester 417's national animal is the sandworm, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Spice Harvester 417 is ranked 286,848^th in the world and 1,472^nd in Jihad Army of the Emperor for Lowest Crime Rates, with 37.01 law-abiding acts per hour.
