The Republic of 58 Buckaroos is a mammoth, efficient nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, fear of technology, and prohibition of alcohol. The compassionate, cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.563 billion 58 Buckaroosians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government prioritizes Law & Order, with Education, Industry, and Administration also on the agenda. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 47.8%.

The frighteningly efficient 58 Buckaroosian economy, worth a remarkable 1,138 trillion Buckaroos a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 133,002 Buckaroos, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 521,361 per year while the poor average 23,086, a ratio of 22.6 to 1.

The government has cut taxes in the face of widespread tax evasion, kilts and cassocks are viewed with suspicion, 58 Buckaroos is sometimes referred to as the global janitor, and families are left homeless as entire suburbs are bulldozed on the whim of tribal chiefs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. 58 Buckaroos's national animal is the Buckaroo, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

58 Buckaroos is ranked 144,229^th in the world and 173^rd in junk for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 597.32 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
