The Vampire Syndicate of Black Ivars is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Methuselah Ţepeș with an iron fist, and renowned for its frequent executions, parental licensing program, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 41.927 billion Nosferatus 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, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Industry, Healthcare, and Education are also considered important, while Welfare and Social Policy are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Crypt. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 43.0%.

The frighteningly efficient undead economy, worth an astonishing 10,130 trillion blood barrels a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, Retail, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 241,622 blood barrels, with the richest citizens earning 5.9 times as much as the poorest.

Fitness to teach sport is proven by urinating the furthest up a wall, schools offer a range of lessons in subjects as diverse as The Economics of Bullying for Lunch Money, the Crypt Women's Prison Choir now has a baritone section, and children who can't memorize their multiplication tables are sent to the mines. Crime is moderate. Black Ivars's national animal is the bat, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is necromancy.

Black Ivars is ranked 18,180^th in the world and 268^th in the South Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 7,388.21 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
