The Cyan-Depleted Cartridges of Printer164 is a colossal, cultured nation, remarkable for its deadly medical pandemics, daily referendums, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.574 billion Printer164ians 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 83.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Printer164ian economy, worth 833 trillion cards a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 149,458 cards, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Printer164 City's iconic yellow taxis are nowhere to be seen, students abandon classrooms for online education, breaking rocks in the hot sun now involves using your head, and children often explain to their parents that the Mega Ultimate Sword Fist was worth the thousand-card charge on their phone bill. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Printer164's national animal is the legendary, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Printer164 is ranked 95,103rd in the world and 1,420th in Two for Largest Populations, with 5.57 billion capita.
