The Rogue Nation of MSN 69 is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Highlander with an iron fist, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, ban on automobiles, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.486 billion MSN 69ians 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 relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Andrews. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 37.3%.

The frighteningly efficient MSN 69ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,612 trillion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 248,647 dollars, with the richest citizens earning 6.3 times as much as the poorest.

Every workday begins with group therapy, the overhead luggage compartment is often full, claiming to have performed the Heimlich Maneuver is a popular defense for assault charges, and politicians have to be granted day-release from prison to speak on bills. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. MSN 69's national animal is the turtle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways, and its national religion is Cards.

MSN 69 is ranked 289,384th in the world and 616th in NationStates for Safest, scoring 3.86 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
