The Black Light District Motto of Adapt or Die is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Antifa with a fair hand, and notable for its anti-smoking policies, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and smutty television. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 26.111 billion Adapt or Dies hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nowhere and Everywhere. The average income tax rate is 74.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Adapt or Diean economy, worth a remarkable 7,217 trillion Purple Medallions a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Information Technology, Book Publishing, Retail, and Soda Sales. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 276,399 Purple Medallions, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

The nation's leading climatologists are investigating animal flatulence in efforts to reduce methane emissions, hypochondriacs demand treatment for genetic disorders they don't have, rioting and unrest sweep the nation, and the nation is currently revamping its entire education system. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Adapt or Die's national animal is the Black Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Atheism.

Adapt or Die is ranked 1,403rd in the world and 52nd in NationStates for Most Stationary, with 4,350.70554888 days.
