The Incorporated States of NSC Puppet 46 is a colossal, orderly nation, notable for its closed borders, avant-garde cinema, and prohibition of alcohol. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 7.637 billion NSC Puppet 46ians 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 large, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 91.9%.

The frighteningly efficient NSC Puppet 46ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,444 trillion cards a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Retail, Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 189,192 cards, with the richest citizens earning 5.5 times as much as the poorest.

Voters must frequently select what they view as the lesser of two evils on the ballot, descriptions of properties as "a stone's throw from the city centre" require a trebuchet to be true, a recent political speech drew the ire of nerds everywhere after the speaker claimed that Darth Vader was Harry Potter's father, and creating cardboard imitations of missiles is a new top-secret military project. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. NSC Puppet 46's national animal is the legendary, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

NSC Puppet 46 is ranked 18,018^th in the world and 1,808^th in Two for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 6,163.86 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
