The The Pointlessly Long WFE ext of 9008 is a gargantuan, orderly nation, remarkable for its prohibition of alcohol, parental licensing program, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 12.677 billion 9008ians 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, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 81.4%.

The frighteningly efficient 9008ian economy, worth a remarkable 2,321 trillion Marks a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 183,105 Marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Acute politicians deride opposition members for being obtuse, many parents are becoming frustrated with their children's choices in spouses, the jails are alive with the sound of birdsong, and 9008 City is a police state during international summits. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. 9008's national animal is the Bear, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

9008 is ranked 15,663^rd in the world and 1^st in Stupidly long names for Lowest Crime Rates, with 93.54 law-abiding acts per hour.
