The Rogue Nation of MSN 23 is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Highlander with an iron fist, and notable for its avowedly heterosexual populace, free-roaming dinosaurs, and state-planned economy. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 9.452 billion MSN 23ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Andrews. The average income tax rate is 71.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient MSN 23ian economy, worth a remarkable 3,397 trillion guilders a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Furniture Restoration. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 359,395 guilders, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The new foreign policy is "why bother invading neighbours when they can be bought wholesale?", the overhead luggage compartment is often full, young girls aren't having a ball but they are enjoying themselves, and a recent political debate came to a quick close once the ruling party decreed it was "just plain silly". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. MSN 23's national animal is the bison, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Cards.

MSN 23 is ranked 289,587th in the world and 651st in NationStates for Safest, scoring 3.72 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
