The Rogue Nation of MSN 72 is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Highlander with an iron fist, and notable for its enslaved workforce, zero percent divorce rate, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.172 billion MSN 72ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Andrews. The average income tax rate is 71.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient MSN 72ian economy, worth a remarkable 2,372 trillion rupees a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, Furniture Restoration, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 290,335 rupees, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

The government believes there is no problem that raising taxes won't fix, calling dibs is an unalienable right, the government seizes all major gold finds, and the daily weather forecast often predicts light showers of debris. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. MSN 72's national animal is the cow, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Cards.

MSN 72 is ranked 343,313th in the world and 634th in NationStates for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -17.25 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
