The Republic of Code005 is a titanic, orderly nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and parental licensing program. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 10.028 billion Code005ians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and look forward to their next free and open election, to be held on an as-yet unannounced date.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 42.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Code005ian economy, worth 511 trillion bitcoins a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Soda Sales, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 50,984 bitcoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

The "Underwear of Women in Power" issue of The Code005 City Times is sold out, thousands of picky mothers-in-law have been recruited to serve as even pickier cookery instructors, women across the country are tying the knot, and internet trolls are considered valiant supporters of the right to free speech. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Code005's national animal is the squirrel, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Code005 is ranked 137,568^th in the world and 518^th in Artificial Solar System for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 1,825.87 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
