The Rogue Nation of GSN69 is a massive, orderly nation, renowned for its enslaved workforce, ritual sacrifices, and disturbing lack of elderly people. The compassionate, cynical, humorless, devout population of 1.567 billion GSN69ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Callan. The average income tax rate is 57.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient GSN69ian economy, worth 211 trillion harps a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 135,035 harps, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

The military is researching proton packs and PK-meters to combat "unseen enemy forces", there's a lot of babies crying for milk in the middle of the day, 'Mountain Doobie' is widely regarded as the nation's favourite drink, and the military's newest toy broadcasts GSN69's anthem on hostile frequencies to drive enemies insane. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. GSN69's national animal is the banshee, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Caitlicigh na hÉireann.

GSN69 is ranked 63,333rd in the world and 1,816th in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 3,469.73 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
