The Protectorate of Spice Harvester 306 is a colossal, orderly nation, renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 8.287 billion Spice Harvester 306ians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 29.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Spice Harvester 306ian economy, worth 807 trillion spices a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 97,483 spices, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 530,213 per year while the poor average 9,214, a ratio of 57.5 to 1.

The optimally efficient parking strategy for business commuters is referred to as the "traveling salesman problem", new research always seems to support government initiatives, the national anthem is a rather effective sleeping aid, and ships no longer sail as no one wants to encounter Spice Harvester 306ian pirates. Crime is a major problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Spice Harvester 306's national animal is the sandworm, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Spice Harvester 306 is ranked 75,856th in the world and 759th in Jihad Army of the Emperor for Most Stationary, with 626.9673417962 days.
