The Cyan-Depleted Cartridges of Printer226 is a colossal, cultured nation, renowned for its closed borders, infamous sell-swords, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.574 billion Printer226ians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 68.1%.
The frighteningly efficient Printer226ian economy, worth 757 trillion cards a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 135,895 cards, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.5 times as much as the poorest.
Babysitters are a thing of the past, bags of fertiliser come with detailed instructions for not making explosives, debate rages over whether ground fish guts can be spread on fields, and public incontinence is a growing problem amongst the nation's women. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Printer226's national animal is the legendary, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
