The Abandoned Colony of Two-Oh-Four is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by CYCLOPS II with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, smutty television, and national health service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 10.657 billion Colonialists are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.
The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Site Alpha. The average income tax rate is 26.7%.
The frighteningly efficient Colonial economy, worth a remarkable 1,362 trillion Credits a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an impressive 127,868 Credits, with the richest citizens earning 5.2 times as much as the poorest.
Rumor has it that CYCLOPS II has won three lotteries in a row, rebuilding efforts for a recently destroyed cathedral aren't expected to be completed for another century, nudity is frowned upon, and the nation's atlases tend to go out of date every few weeks. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Two-Oh-Four's national animal is the Cat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Two-Oh-Four is ranked 284,031st in the world and 10,928th in Lazarus for Most Primitive, scoring -411.41 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
