The Incorporated States of NSC Puppet 69 is a colossal, cultured nation, renowned for its daily referendums, public floggings, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 7.665 billion NSC Puppet 69ians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 93.4%.

The frighteningly efficient NSC Puppet 69ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,447 trillion cards a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Retail, Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is an impressive 188,808 cards, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

Sleazy politicians exploit the Parliamentary Code of Conduct to purge their rivals, hidden bedroom-cams are installed to catch mothers doing their kids' homework, there's never a spare chair in the retirement home, and court cases mostly involve lawyers shouting questions at witnesses giving silent shrugs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. NSC Puppet 69's national animal is the legendary, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

NSC Puppet 69 is ranked 8,064^th in the world and 194^th in Two for Largest Black Market, with 838 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
