The Republic of Curative Agent 54 is a massive, safe nation, notable for its avant-garde cinema, disturbing lack of elderly people, and irreverence towards religion. The quiet, industrious population of 1.113 billion Curative Agent 54ians 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, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 34.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Curative Agent 54ian economy, worth 46.0 trillion Credits a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Basket Weaving, and Trout Farming. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 41,338 Credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

The government is in utter turmoil following the recent abolishment of the tax code, rural communities are all but disenfranchised as politicians focus all their attention on winning the deciding urban votes, the government invades its allies more than its enemies, and local mafias have a tough time disposing of dead snitches without catching the attention of recycling authorities. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Curative Agent 54's national animal is the Trout, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Curative Agent 54 is ranked 94,241st in the world and 12th in Blue Chevron for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 2,732.25 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
