The Protectorate of Spice Harvester 465 is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its public floggings, strictly enforced bedtime, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 8.19 billion Spice Harvester 465ians are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 40.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Spice Harvester 465ian economy, worth 826 trillion spices a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Gambling, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 100,938 spices, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 393,175 per year while the poor average 17,701, a ratio of 22.2 to 1.

School children declare that teachers "may confiscate our toys but they can never take our FREEDOM", swings are now more popular than see-saws in children's playgrounds, children as young as eight can be found working in factories, and science centers and state of the art laboratories are ubiquitous. Crime, especially youth-related, is a problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Spice Harvester 465's national animal is the sandworm, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Spice Harvester 465 is ranked 76,245th in the world and 1,148th in Jihad Army of the Emperor for Most Stationary, with 626.94579319888 days.
