The Borderlands of Test6902 is a gargantuan, orderly nation, renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, ubiquitous missile silos, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical, humorless, devout population of 11.6 billion Test6902ians 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 Law & Order, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 56.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Test6902ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,435 trillion algaes 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 a large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. 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 impressive 123,733 algaes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

One does not simply walk into the tundra, if you go into the woods today you're sure of a big surprise, 100-year-old politicians are now a thing of the past, and flight attendants rip down curtains with revolutionary fervor. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Test6902's national animal is the fish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Test6902 is ranked 25,097^th in the world and 1,536^th in Lazarus for Highest Food Quality, scoring 96.77 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
