The Rogue Nation of MSN 35 is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Highlander with an iron fist, and notable for its ban on automobiles, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 9.664 billion MSN 35ians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.
The relatively small, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Andrews. The average income tax rate is 61.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient MSN 35ian economy, worth a remarkable 2,590 trillion bitcoins 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 black market in Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, Uranium Mining, 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 amazing 268,101 bitcoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.
Terrorist videos start by thanking their sponsors, Scoutmasters debate whether luxury log cabins defeat the purpose of camping, Highlander's luxurious new home has been designated as a protected cultural heritage site, and the government considers it a sacred duty to video bikini-clad beach swimmers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. MSN 35's national animal is the dolphin, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways, and its national religion is Awakening.
MSN 35 is ranked 13,591st in the world and 272nd in NationStates for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 9,676.02 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
