The Cyan-Depleted Cartridges of Printer238 is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its ritual sacrifices, zero percent divorce rate, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.597 billion Printer238ians 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. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 83.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Printer238ian economy, worth 791 trillion cards a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 141,358 cards, with the richest citizens earning 8.8 times as much as the poorest.

Vile black smog from coal power plants has enveloped several major urban centres, attendance of fathers at PTA meetings is at an all-time high, the government loves seeing the little people fight, and the government subsidises medicines of mass destruction. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Printer238's national animal is the legendary, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Printer238 is ranked 277,046^th in the world and 1,874^th in Two for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 33.18 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
