The Incorporated States of 90044 is a gargantuan, efficient nation, renowned for its enslaved workforce, punitive income tax rates, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 10.381 billion 90044ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 71.5%.

The frighteningly efficient 90044ian economy, worth a remarkable 2,028 trillion 9003s a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an impressive 195,387 9003s, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 670,329 per year while the poor average 41,799, a ratio of 16.0 to 1.

Military recruitment numbers are down as citizens object on 'moral grounds', expats return home to a government devoid of social and environmental agencies, citizens are exhausted from weekly general elections, and there is no rest for the widowed. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. 90044's national animal is the 9003, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

90044 is ranked 19,458^th in the world and 1^st in What on earth is this1 for Lowest Crime Rates, with 90.16 law-abiding acts per hour.
