The Disputed Territories of Snow 5 is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, zero percent divorce rate, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 4.405 billion Snow 5ians 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 medium-sized, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, although Administration, Industry, and Education are also considered important, while International Aid and Social Policy are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 32.8%.

The thriving Snow 5ian economy, worth 280 trillion moons a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is 63,757 moons, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 201,197 per year while the poor average 15,437, a ratio of 13.0 to 1.

The nation's taxpayers pay for foreign governments' extravagances, the "war on terror" doesn't seem to be making Snow 5ians any less frightened, defense lawyers suggestively note to juries how flagrantly happy victims were, and stage mothers commonly give their children the nickname 'Cash'. Crime is moderate, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Snow 5's national animal is the horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Snow 5 is ranked 244,533^rd in the world and 10,260^th in Lazarus for Lowest Crime Rates, with 53.56 law-abiding acts per hour.
