The Rogue Nation of BSN8 is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Blanca with an iron fist, and renowned for its enslaved workforce, zero percent divorce rate, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, cynical, humorless, devout population of 1.569 billion BSN8ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pamplona. The average income tax rate is 67.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient BSN8ian economy, worth 203 trillion coins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 129,732 coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

The internet has been placed under government control, the studies of art and philosophy are banned, a ban on unsolicited cold calling in all forms is in effect, and BSN8 Barrier Island residents anxiously await their 'Bridge to Somewhere'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. BSN8's national animal is the animal, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Agape.

BSN8 is ranked 47,287^th in the world and 17^th in Communist Allied Defense Organization for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 4,566.1 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
