The Protectorate of 90034 is a gargantuan, cultured nation, notable for its enslaved workforce, free-roaming dinosaurs, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 10.418 billion 90034ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 34.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient 90034ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,950 trillion 9003s a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 187,226 9003s, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Burning yourself alive is not okay but starving and whipping yourself is fine, the government has officially clarified that "wee on your hands to save time" does not count as proper hygiene, former stunt pilots are unable to pass the licence test to fly a drone, and uploading purple prose to social media earns a place on a government watchlist. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. 90034's national animal is the 9003, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

90034 is ranked 104,499th in the world and 1,984th in the Rejected Realms for Most Stationary, with 409.2345297564 days.
