The Rogue Nation of MSN13 is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Highlander with an even hand, and renowned for its disturbing lack of elderly people, pith helmet sales, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.053 billion MSN13ians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Auznhaiax. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 75.9%.

The frighteningly efficient MSN13ian economy, worth 792 trillion kronor a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Furniture Restoration, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 195,517 kronor, with the richest citizens earning 7.9 times as much as the poorest.

Business is adjusting to new gender equality policies in the workplace, soldiers who shoot themselves in the foot are regarded as heroes, the nation's politicians are acknowledged as the most polite in the region to the dismay of comedians everywhere, and saying 'Hi Guys' to a mixed gender group of people at work is a fireable offense. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. MSN13's national animal is the horse, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Cards.

MSN13 is ranked 236,464th in the world and 66th in Greater Dienstad for Most Extreme, scoring 11.6 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
