The State of Blackspearhead is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 33.606 billion Blackspearheadians enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.

The minute, liberal, pro-business government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Education, with Welfare, Industry, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Spirituality aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.3%.

The very strong Blackspearheadian economy, worth a remarkable 1,412 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 42,029 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 285,746 per year while the poor average 2,258, a ratio of 126 to 1.

The country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, the streets are increasingly clogged with poverty-stricken beggars, Blackspearhead's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region, and streakers swamp all public events in order to bare it all. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Blackspearhead's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Blackspearhead is ranked 86,226th in the world and 442nd in 0000 for Most Stationary, with 537.99485012752 days.
