The Rogue Nation of GSN47 is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Gwen with an iron fist, and remarkable for its public floggings, frequent executions, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical, humorless, devout population of 3.242 billion GSN47ians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Callan. The average income tax rate is 67.1%.

The frighteningly efficient GSN47ian economy, worth 556 trillion harps a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 171,571 harps, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Government reports are now used to teach toddlers to read, in court almost every witness is a hostile witness, the examiners who examine examiners are being examined by examiners, and the latest guided missile cruiser "Ship-1642" has received precisely zero column inches in the press. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. GSN47's national animal is the banshee, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Caitlicigh na hÉireann.

GSN47 is ranked 260,713th in the world and 58th in Hive for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -4.1 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
