The Holy Yakima Wall of I 82 is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Eisenhower with an iron fist, and renowned for its deadly medical pandemics, rampant corporate plagiarism, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 11.141 billion Highwaymen 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 medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tri-Cities. The average income tax rate is 40.9%.
The frighteningly efficient Roadworthy economy, worth a remarkable 1,254 trillion tolls a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Gambling. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 112,628 tolls, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.0 times as much as the poorest.
Giant beards and handlebar moustaches are increasingly popular, euthanasia is illegal, grinning punters say that casino roulette is the greatest high that life has to offer, and hospitals are cleaned with lemons and vinegar. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. I 82's national animal is the Firebird, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Constructionist.
I 82 is ranked 231,420th in the world and 7,693rd in Osiris for Most Primitive, scoring -109.77 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
