The Psalm of Np 26 is a titanic, efficient nation, notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, ritual sacrifices, and state-planned economy. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 16.944 billion Np 26ians 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 Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 69.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Np 26ian economy, worth a remarkable 3,573 trillion Coins 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 a large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Book Publishing. 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 210,898 Coins, with the richest citizens earning 5.2 times as much as the poorest.

Escaped birthday balloons are torpedoed out of the sky, the silencing of dissent speaks volumes about the quality of Np 26ian democracy, ten-year-olds regularly found their own political parties, and devotion to God is only skin-deep. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Np 26's national animal is the Seagull, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Np 26 is ranked 13,773^rd in the world and 4^th in The Invaders for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 9,711.08 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
