The Name 0ian Monarchy of Name 0 is a mammoth, orderly nation, ruled by King Jacob I with an iron fist, and remarkable for its closed borders, frequent executions, and prohibition of alcohol. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 8.012 billion Name 0ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is effectively ruled by the Department of Defense, with International Aid and Welfare not funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cazarkstan. The average income tax rate is 91.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Name 0ian economy, worth a remarkable 3,028 trillion Nac-Krojobs 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, extremely specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing. 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 an amazing 377,972 Nac-Krojobs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Name 0ian soldiers are assured their new ray-guns will finally power up after the next round of ominous chanting, male tourists tend to be fearful of Name 0's deadly femme fatales, warfare increasingly resembles a video game, and the stratosphere is full of "silent but deadly" attacks from King Jacob I's rear echelons. Crime is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Name 0's national animal is the Shark, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Christianity.

Name 0 is ranked 310,114th in the world and 4,715th in The North Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring -126 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
