The People's Republic of Black Ops1 is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, parental licensing program, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 42.118 billion Black Ops1ians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 65.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Black Ops1ian economy, worth a remarkable 3,914 trillion daggers a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 92,932 daggers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Businesses are abandoning the city centre because of the lack of transport connections, cave paintings are back in vogue, the taste of spices can sail a thousand ships, and escalators are avoided at all costs. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Black Ops1's national animal is the caribou, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Black Ops1 is ranked 26,970^th in the world and 2^nd in Alaska for Most Developed, scoring 84.13 on the Human Development Index.
