The Colony of 1050247 is a colossal, orderly nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, state-planned economy, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.702 billion 1050247ians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Administration, Education, and Law & Order are also considered important, while International Aid is ignored. The average income tax rate is 49.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse 1050247ian economy, worth 607 trillion 131514525s a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Book Publishing, and Information Technology. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 106,476 131514525s, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

The leaders of 1050247 are given the nod by their predecessors, hordes of unemployed lumberjacks have resorted to cutting down utility poles to satisfy their cravings, there are no longer any roads less traveled, and collisions between bicycles and carnival floats are on the rise. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. 1050247's national animal is the 1951822112, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

1050247 is ranked 129,412th in the world and 246th in 105 for Most Stationary, with 256.2971623586 days.
