The Rogue Nation of MSN 28 is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Highlander with an iron fist, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, keen interest in outer space, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 9.234 billion MSN 28ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Goals. The average income tax rate is 60.9%.

The frighteningly efficient MSN 28ian economy, worth a remarkable 3,029 trillion marks a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 328,061 marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.8 times as much as the poorest.

The dartboard at the MSN 28ian Cancer Research Charity bears a picture of Highlander's face, whenever pilots have to bail out the government bails out their company, medical experts advise that those claiming to be medical experts are probably fraudsters, and a baby's first breath is also a baby's first felony. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. MSN 28's national animal is the kangaroo, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Cards.

MSN 28 is ranked 36,300th in the world and 364th in NationStates for Most Stationary, with 1,246.08692472608 days.
