The Community of Card for Bob9 is a titanic, efficient nation, notable for its smutty television, compulsory military service, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 12.608 billion Card for Bob9ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of NES. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 70.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Card for Bob9ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,447 trillion lire a year, is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 114,777 lire, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 330,974 per year while the poor average 31,597, a ratio of 10.5 to 1.

Teachers are dying as they attempt to read 500 word essays without pausing for breath, the judicial branch is strongly influenced by major corporations, biker gangs and fashionistas are converting to the Tranquility of Yellow en masse, and the nation's reputation for treachery has left it sidelined on the international stage. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Card for Bob9's national animal is the leopard, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Card for Bob9 is ranked 51,414th in the world and 2nd in Nintendo for Most Developed, scoring 77.03 on the Human Development Index.
