The Republic of SWP-1 is a gargantuan, orderly nation, notable for its ritual sacrifices, digital currency, and infamous sell-swords. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 26.025 billion SWP-1ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 31.7%.

The strong SWP-1ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,728 trillion $$s a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Uranium Mining, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 66,417 $$s, with the richest citizens earning 7.1 times as much as the poorest.

Metal detectors have been banned after a bottle cap caused a riot at the beach, male friends are often accompanied by a female relative in order to prove their 'straightness', Leader claims tax rises are the result of 'curses', and commuters travel in zigzags to avoid stalking accusations. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. SWP-1's national animal is the swordfish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

SWP-1 is ranked 137,227th in the world and 1st in Socialist Workers Party for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 2,352.93 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
