The Darling of Code016 is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, ritual sacrifices, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 5.015 billion Code016ians 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 government prioritizes Law & Order, although Administration, Education, and Defense are also considered important. The average income tax rate is 34.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Code016ian economy, worth 256 trillion yen a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 51,153 yen, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Foreign leaders who don't applaud Leader's speeches are regarded as enemies of Code016, roosters that herald the rising sun are immediately sent to the slaughterhouse, the only soporific permitted during sermons is the preacher's voice, and building a phallus out of Minecraft blocks counts as indecent exposure. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Code016's national animal is the black widow, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Code016 is ranked 42,048^th in the world and 171^st in Artificial Solar System for Most Patriotic, with 31.26 flags saluted per person per day.
