The Cyan-Depleted Cartridges of Printer324 is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, infamous sell-swords, and anti-smoking policies. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 5.477 billion Printer324ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Administration, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 82.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Printer324ian economy, worth 788 trillion cards a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 143,945 cards, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

The nation sends criminals home to think about what they did, creating cardboard imitations of missiles is a new top-secret military project, television executives are interested in turning Leader's zany home life into a sitcom, and healthcare workers are flummoxed over the spike in foreign tourists with sudden-onset heart disease. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Printer324's national animal is the legendary, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Printer324 is ranked 19,515^th in the world and 1,786^th in Two for Most Corrupt Governments, with 102.23 kickbacks per hour.
