The Always Answer 1 of Answer 1 is a mammoth, orderly nation, ruled by Numero Uno with an iron fist, and notable for its infamous sell-swords, frequent executions, and disturbing lack of elderly people. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 8.171 billion Answer 1ians 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 medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Monopolis. The average income tax rate is 72.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Answer 1ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,223 trillion Ones a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 149,744 Ones, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

Government employees are authorized driver's licenses to get their bosses much-needed morning espressos, soldiers' positions are given away by the glint of their bayonets, some say that Numero Uno can't handle the truth but can handle truth-seekers, and it's been a banner year for local vexillology. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Answer 1's national animal is the Cyclops, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Primary Messianic Monotheism.

Answer 1 is ranked 66,998th in the world and 6th in Testregionia for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 4,060.41 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
