The Republic of The Midnight Channel is a massive, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its absence of drug laws and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 1.607 billion Midnight Channelians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Defense, with Healthcare, Welfare, and Public Transport also on the agenda, while International Aid and Spirituality aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.6%.

The strong Midnight Channelian economy, worth 53.8 trillion v-bucks a year, is dominated by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Trout Farming, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 33,457 v-bucks, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 215,639 per year while the poor average 2,097, a ratio of 102 to 1.

Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. The Midnight Channel's national animal is the raven, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

The Midnight Channel is ranked 244,200^th in the world and 1^st in Playstation for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring -18.71 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
