The Republic of District Line 24 is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its frequent executions, zero percent divorce rate, and disturbing lack of elderly people. The hard-nosed population of 10.608 billion District Line 24ians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 30.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The District Line 24ian economy, worth 483 trillion guilders a year, is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Cheese Exports, and Trout Farming. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 45,571 guilders, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Adultery has been made a capital offence, religious organizations are being forced to leave the country or pay income taxes like everybody else, the nation's youth would rather watch paint dry than the news, and couples kissing on the street are detained for 'unlawful exchange of genetic material'. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. District Line 24's national animal is the parrot, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

District Line 24 is ranked 260,854th in the world and 3rd in Saide System for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -8.09 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
