The Republic of 6967 is a massive, orderly nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, ban on automobiles, and suspicion of poets. The cynical, devout population of 1.062 billion 6967ians 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, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 25.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong 6967ian economy, worth 84.5 trillion florins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Furniture Restoration, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 79,557 florins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Government employees have reverted to carrier pigeon due to never-ending virus scans, nature reserves often contain artificial waterfalls and concrete paths, government buildings are being cleansed of anything that might have racist connotations, and citizens are strongly encouraged to breathe less so as to limit the carbon footprint. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. 6967's national animal is the cobra, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

6967 is ranked 158,575th in the world and 263rd in Izern for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 353.51 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
