The Incorporated States of NSC Puppet 149 is a colossal, orderly nation, remarkable for its closed borders, anti-smoking policies, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 7.717 billion NSC Puppet 149ians 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 large, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 92.7%.

The frighteningly efficient NSC Puppet 149ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,376 trillion cards a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 178,318 cards, with the richest citizens earning 7.4 times as much as the poorest.

NSC Puppet 149ian companies generally just fire employees in lieu of giving them vacation, descriptions of properties as "a stone's throw from the city centre" require a trebuchet to be true, behind every great person are three dozen other people passing great memos, and every new toxic waste dump comes with a seal of approval from the government's science advisor. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. NSC Puppet 149's national animal is the legendary, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

NSC Puppet 149 is ranked 8,080^th in the world and 159^th in Two for Largest Governments, scoring 37.89 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
