The Lurking Mailbox Peepers of D016 is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Bill with an iron fist, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, deadly medical pandemics, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 11.496 billion Skyrockets are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Danoff. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 23.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Taffyish economy, worth a remarkable 1,327 trillion Banks a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Soda Sales, and Information Technology. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 115,499 Banks, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 475,991 per year while the poor average 18,451, a ratio of 25.8 to 1.

Kids looking for shark teeth have become ancient history, the nation's faithful often say there is a higher power watching over them, the government expresses surprisingly intense opinions on the use of whip pans, and nobody looks each other in the eye at neighborhood block parties any more. Crime is pervasive. D016's national animal is the Cheetah, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Afternoon Delight.

D016 is ranked 291,204th in the world and 100th in Windows for Lowest Crime Rates, with 22.3 law-abiding acts per hour.
