The Republic of 30SQN is a colossal, cultured nation, notable for its compulsory military service, anti-smoking policies, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 5.603 billion 30SQNians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 52.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong 30SQNian economy, worth 471 trillion baht a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 84,199 baht, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Pristine wilderness has been trashed in the quest for cheaper oil, every fourth child is born with flippers instead of hands, children have only the most basic of education, and nursing mothers are often arrested for indecent exposure. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. 30SQN's national animal is the Date Palm, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

30SQN is ranked 98,791st in the world and 3,208th in Osiris for Most Armed, with 0.44 weapons per person.
