The Rogue Nation of MSN 32 is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Highlander with an iron fist, and remarkable for its public floggings, disturbing lack of elderly people, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.391 billion MSN 32ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Andrews. The average income tax rate is 80.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient MSN 32ian economy, worth a remarkable 2,564 trillion bitcoins a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Furniture Restoration, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 305,672 bitcoins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Engine room hooch is the drink of choice among the nation's navy, all MSN 32ians live like kings, the government is deliberately installing bloatware onto computers, and Highlander's luxurious new home has been designated as a protected cultural heritage site. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. MSN 32's national animal is the tiger, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Awakening.

MSN 32 is ranked 5,620th in the world and 57th in NationStates for Lowest Crime Rates, with 113.66 law-abiding acts per hour.
