The Queendom of Ban One is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, absence of drug laws, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 12.106 billion Ban Oneans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Defense, although Administration is also considered important, while Spirituality and Law & Order are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.5%.

The strong Ban Onean economy, worth 588 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Soda Sales, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 48,643 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 314,873 per year while the poor average 3,012, a ratio of 104 to 1.

A new guerrilla marketing campaign for tap water involves government agents spraying random citizens with hose water, employers may fire workers without giving any reason, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, and voting is voluntary. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Ban One's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Ban One is ranked 19,305th in the world and 2nd in Great Europe for Most Stationary, with 1,644.55441970672 days.
