The Rogue Nation of MSN 88 is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Highlander with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, free-roaming dinosaurs, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 6.547 billion MSN 88ians 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 relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Andrews. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 30.3%.

The frighteningly efficient MSN 88ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,351 trillion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 206,454 dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 730,783 per year while the poor average 42,112, a ratio of 17.4 to 1.

Political candidates are regularly blocked for minor convictions from their teenage years, warning signs caution MSN 88ians where they may fall off 'the edge of the world', cassocked priests and choirboys believe that what happens behind closed doors stays behind closed doors, and banning party poppers has been a real party pooper. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. MSN 88's national animal is the tiger, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Cards.

MSN 88 is ranked 283,101^st in the world and 569^th in NationStates for Safest, scoring 3.99 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
