The Rogue Nation of MSN 57 is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Highlander with an iron fist, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, parental licensing program, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.524 billion MSN 57ians 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, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Andrews. The average income tax rate is 70.8%.

The frighteningly efficient MSN 57ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,603 trillion pesos a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 245,805 pesos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

People's charity begins and ends at home, truancy is as easy as clicking a camera icon, the government seizes the property of the recently deceased, and the country is rumored to be a Brancalandian puppet state. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. MSN 57's national animal is the leopard, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Cards.

MSN 57 is ranked 82,306th in the world and 470th in NationStates for Largest Populations, with 6.52 billion capita.
