The Rogue Nation of MSN 44 is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Highlander with an iron fist, and renowned for its ritual sacrifices, frequent executions, and avant-garde cinema. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.18 billion MSN 44ians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Andrews. The average income tax rate is 22.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient MSN 44ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,881 trillion deniers 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 Woodchip Exports. 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 230,045 deniers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Troops are either deafened by gunfire or a hysterical voice screaming the Party manifesto, the government is pouring money into 'Operation Enduring Democracy', asking 'does my bum look big in this?' leads to 30 hours of self-esteem classes, and banning party poppers has been a real party pooper. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. MSN 44's national animal is the squirrel, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Awakening.

MSN 44 is ranked 36,315th in the world and 380th in NationStates for Most Stationary, with 1,246.08112611868 days.
