The Cyan-Depleted Cartridges of Printer86 is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, zero percent divorce rate, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 5.513 billion Printer86ians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 83.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Printer86ian economy, worth 856 trillion cards a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Retail, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 155,361 cards, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

New treatments are rejected if they cannot be explained using only one-syllable words, the nation's counterintelligence budget is all up in the air, advertisers scramble to sponsor the broadcast of Leader's most personal functions, and the installation of street lights across remote goat tracks has left citizens bemused. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Printer86's national animal is the legendary, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Printer86 is ranked 286,848^th in the world and 1,969^th in Two for Nicest Citizens, with 0.27 average smiles per day.
