The Queen's State of General Black is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by the Governor with a fair hand, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 16.593 billion General Blackians 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, juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.3%.

The strong General Blackian economy, worth 760 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Basket Weaving, and Gambling. Average income is 45,857 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 295,553 per year while the poor average 2,874, a ratio of 102 to 1.

Military funding has been stripped back, the nation's official head of religious affairs is an atheist, General Black has designated Capital Heights as its capital city, and The Governor has just been declared ruler of General Black in an international press conference. Crime is a serious problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. General Black's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

General Black is ranked 109,084th in the world and 3rd in Democratic Republic of the Congo for Nicest Citizens, with 13 average smiles per day.
