The Rogue Nation of Alien Magic is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Kang with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, enslaved workforce, and aversion to nipples. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 45.386 billion Alien Magicians 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 minute, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Defense, with Law & Order and Industry also on the agenda, while Environment and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Alien Magic City. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Alien Magician economy, worth an astonishing 25,763 trillion kidneys a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Gambling, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is a breathtaking 567,643 kidneys, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 4,996,757 per year while the poor average 9,413, a ratio of 530 to 1.

Police deploy tear-gas on unruly kindergarteners, agricultural profit margins are on fire, card collectors duel to the death, and most farmers are indentured to agrochemical conglomerates. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Alien Magic's national animal is the ox, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Worship of the Mighty Kidney.

Alien Magic is ranked 96th in the world and 1st in Gatesville Inc for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 44,999 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
