The People's Republic of Black Ops1 is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its compulsory vegetarianism, state-planned economy, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 42.255 billion Black Ops1ians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 68.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Black Ops1ian economy, worth a remarkable 4,111 trillion daggers a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Information Technology, Book Publishing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 97,301 daggers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Children wondering what happens to pets after they die are shown where the compost heap is, depression sinks in after each election when voters realize they are stuck with these people for years, an underground group of geologists hides new discoveries to protect them from being destroyed in the name of safety, and multiple births are a cause of celebration for tax collectors. 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 frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Black Ops1 is ranked 235,073^rd in the world and 4^th in Alaska for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -4.88 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
