The Watchfires of Submariner-1 is a gargantuan, genial nation, renowned for its zero percent divorce rate, ban on automobiles, and public floggings. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 22.742 billion Submariner-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, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 37.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Submariner-1ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,334 trillion $$s a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 58,683 $$s, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Major corporations receive tax breaks for no apparent reason, a third of Submariner-1ians are e-certified CEOs, man-love is banned in the name of His love, and bizarre-looking creatures called 'Dolly Vardendogs' dominate wildlife preserves. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Submariner-1's national animal is the Dolly Varden, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Submariner-1 is ranked 84,844^th in the world and 1^st in The Bismarck for Lowest Crime Rates, with 67.88 law-abiding acts per hour.
