The Corporate Colony of P4X-582 is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Leader with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, compulsory military service, and anti-smoking policies. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless population of 44.027 billion P4X-582ians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government is dominated by the Department of Defense, although Law & Order and Education are also considered important, while Spirituality and Social Policy aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of P4X-582 City. The average income tax rate is 34.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The enormous but inefficient P4X-582ian economy, worth a remarkable 3,200 trillion NG Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 72,698 NG Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Tax evaders are regularly visited by agents of the P4X-582 Blood Tithe, the government is pouring money into 'Operation Enduring Democracy', the government has declined to declare any particular religion as its 'official' one, and the commercialisation of highly deadly weapons has instilled P4X-582 with a very polite populace. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. P4X-582's national animal is the eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

P4X-582 is ranked 53,681^st in the world and 996^th in the Rejected Realms for Most Armed, with 1.88 weapons per person.
