The Borderlands of N14693 is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, anti-smoking policies, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.054 billion N14693ians 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 78.6%.

The frighteningly efficient N14693ian economy, worth 898 trillion nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnns a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 148,434 nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnns, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 419,590 per year while the poor average 42,011, a ratio of 10.0 to 1.

Wait staff claim to like it when odorous customers flirt with them, one can walk from one side of N14693 City to the other without setting foot on N14693ian soil, chalkboards are replaced with billboards in the classroom, and there's a revolutionary culture in the nation's dairies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. N14693's national animal is the nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

N14693 is ranked 15,338th in the world and 1,061st in Osiris for Most Corrupt Governments, with 120.19 kickbacks per hour.
