The End of Medium of 0x19 is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Richard Stallman with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, parental licensing program, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 8.388 billion 0x19ians 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kernelspace. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 67.2%.

The frighteningly efficient 0x19ian economy, worth 780 trillion bytes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Tourism, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is 93,004 bytes, with the richest citizens earning 5.5 times as much as the poorest.

Small patches of desolate land across the world are part of 0x19ian sovereign territory, companies are turning to trained RAMS for their most menial jobs, the hardest thing for a mining operation to dig through is government red tape, and dubiously qualified Skandilundian barristers keep referring to laws as 'government guidelines'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. 0x19's national animal is the RAM, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

0x19 is ranked 56,981^st in the world and 81^st in Bytes for Most Corrupt Governments, with 32.24 kickbacks per hour.
