The Colony of 9999 is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The Musician with an even hand, and notable for its ban on automobiles. The devout population of 10.897 billion 9999ians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government prioritizes Welfare, although Defense, Education, and Healthcare are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of River City. The average income tax rate is 28.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped 9999ian economy, worth 331 trillion marks a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 30,376 marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Victims of crime are viewed as less trustworthy than politicians, the government officially wants you to slow down and speak more clearly, the roar of the Niagara 3000 mega-loo can be heard several blocks away, and prison visits increase substantially during election years. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. 9999's national animal is the bison, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Melodicology.

9999 is ranked 51,477th in the world and 1st in Andromeda for Most Stationary, with 869.86324884272 days.
