The Protectorate of Spice Harvester 3 is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its ritual sacrifices, parental licensing program, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.487 billion Spice Harvester 3ians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 36.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Spice Harvester 3ian economy, worth 885 trillion spices a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Soda Sales, Information Technology, and Gambling. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 104,298 spices, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 307,833 per year while the poor average 27,789, a ratio of 11.1 to 1.

Anniversaries of major historical events pass unnoticed, military barracks resemble five-star hotels, recreational drug businesses are regularly pruned if they grow above the maximum legal size, and some say Leader has gone MAD after authorizing the development of apocalyptic biological weapons. Crime, especially youth-related, is a major problem. Spice Harvester 3's national animal is the sandworm, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Spice Harvester 3 is ranked 75,095th in the world and 3rd in Jihad Army of the Emperor for Most Stationary, with 627.0055362162 days.
