The Allied States of CSX-19 is a massive, orderly nation, renowned for its zero percent divorce rate, prohibition of alcohol, and irreverence towards religion. The cynical population of 1.663 billion CSX-19ians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Administration, with Defense, Healthcare, and Public Transport also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 44.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish CSX-19ian economy, worth 39.2 trillion rials a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Arms Manufacturing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Retail, and Information Technology. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 23,562 rials, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Workers' complaints never reach central planning, crowded passenger trains are near-silent save for the soft tap of fingers on touchscreens, prisoners have been known to host cooking and home décor television shows, and relatives of recent award winners find their trophies make stylish urns. Crime is relatively low. CSX-19's national animal is the zebra, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

CSX-19 is ranked 322,225th in the world and 13th in International Network of Nations for Most Developed, scoring 44.75 on the Human Development Index.
