The Democratic States of 90056 is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its enslaved workforce, free-roaming dinosaurs, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 10.445 billion 90056ians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 78.2%.

The frighteningly efficient 90056ian economy, worth a remarkable 2,004 trillion 9003s a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 191,936 9003s, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

The new Liquor Legitimacy Office is besieged with job applications from people who have experience in "statistical sampling methods", families are left homeless as entire suburbs are bulldozed on the whim of tribal chiefs, a historic rise in the minimum wage has crushed the economy with inflation, and the nation is now proudly cholera-free. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. 90056's national animal is the 9003, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

90056 is ranked 285,204^th in the world and 2^nd in What on earth is this13 for Most Beautiful Environments, with 4.22 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
