The Republic of SSN25 is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Daniel O'Connell with an iron fist, and notable for its closed borders, free-roaming dinosaurs, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.145 billion SSN25ians 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, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dublin. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 67.4%.

The frighteningly efficient SSN25ian economy, worth 781 trillion bitcoins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 188,542 bitcoins, with the richest citizens earning 6.6 times as much as the poorest.

If you go into the woods today you're sure of a big surprise, tardiness has increased after carpooling was classified as a criminal offense, the arms industry is backed by government subsidies and harsh anti-protest laws are in place, and the government spends millions of bitcoins every year prosecuting spammers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. SSN25's national animal is the bison, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Celtic Paganism.

SSN25 is ranked 4,851^st in the world and 1^st in Gypsy Lands for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring 9,849.29 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
