The Second Best Colony of Second Best Puppet 53 is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Noah with an iron fist, and renowned for its ritual sacrifices, zero percent divorce rate, and avant-garde cinema. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.601 billion Second Best Puppet 53ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 90.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Second Best Puppet 53ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,196 trillion cards a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 181,205 cards, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

The legislature keeps promising "more study" of corruption allegations against the parliamentary whip system, there's never enough space in space, unpopular politicians are often caught between a rock and a hard place, and ironic death by tasering is on the rise amongst door-to-door taser salesmen. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Second Best Puppet 53's national animal is the legendary, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Second Best Puppet 53 is ranked 102,963rd in the world and 1,589th in Two for Most Stationary, with 414.01783919508 days.
