The Commonwealth of 832 is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Thomas Adams with an even hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, state-planned economy, and frequent executions. The devout population of 11.052 billion 832ians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Trianopolis. The average income tax rate is 30.4%.

The large but inefficient 832ian economy, worth 424 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Woodchip Exports, Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Basket Weaving. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 38,427 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.0 times as much as the poorest.

Children are encouraged to fail at school so as not to appear too enlightened, stealing from a clothesline is a serious offence, drug lords often avoid prison time by teaching "chemistry" classes to underprivileged youth, and kids' party bags often contain candy and e-cigarettes. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. 832's national animal is the unicorn, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Nichiren Buddhism.

832 is ranked 141,829th in the world and 6th in 314159265358979323846264338327950 for Lowest Crime Rates, with 61.71 law-abiding acts per hour.
