The District of Blackwood Prime is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by privy council chairman with a fair hand, and remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 20.437 billion Blackwood Primeans 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 solely concerned with Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of District City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.5%.

The very strong Blackwood Primean economy, worth 607 trillion juno aurums a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Automobile Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is 29,749 juno aurums, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 202,261 per year while the poor average 1,598, a ratio of 126 to 1.

The country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, Blackwood Prime has designated District City as its capital city, and Privy council chairman has just been declared ruler of Blackwood Prime in an international press conference. Crime is a major problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Blackwood Prime's national animal is the quick pink fox, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Blackwood Prime is ranked 198,954th in the world and 3rd in Port of Spain for Most Corrupt Governments, with 1.38 kickbacks per hour.
