The Incorporated States of NSC Puppet 64 is a colossal, cultured nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, strictly enforced bedtime, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 6.073 billion NSC Puppet 64ians 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 91.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient NSC Puppet 64ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,034 trillion cards a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 170,335 cards, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government has to take out its Visa to eliminate visas, meetings are often scheduled for "about four-ish" following complete conversion to sundials, speech bubbles are the soul of wit, and children's books regularly feature formerly distressed damsels suing their princes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. NSC Puppet 64's national animal is the legendary, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

NSC Puppet 64 is ranked 12,163rd in the world and 362nd in Two for Lowest Crime Rates, with 97.55 law-abiding acts per hour.
