The Farming Outpost of Jiucai 5 is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its disturbing lack of elderly people, smutty television, and suspicion of poets. The cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.925 billion Jiucaian Rotenaplistanis 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 medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 65.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Jiucaian Rotenaplistaniani economy, worth 910 trillion Rotenaplistani Trade Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Trout Farming. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 153,663 Rotenaplistani Trade Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Prodigal children celebrate as charitable bequests plummet, citizens must pay to enjoy Jiucai 5's pristine beaches, professional athletes juggle part-time jobs to avoid bankruptcy, and job satisfaction is a luxury many Jiucaian Rotenaplistanis can't afford. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jiucai 5's national animal is the Rotenaplistani Aplix, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Jiucai 5 is ranked 30,345^th in the world and 28^th in the rotenaples for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 249.55 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
