The City of Bacolod is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by Mayor Greg Gasataya with an even hand, and notable for its prohibition of alcohol, free-roaming dinosaurs, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, devout population of 5.336 billion Bacolodnon are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bacolod City Center. The average income tax rate is 70.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Bacolodnon economy, worth 515 trillion Philippine Pesos a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 96,600 Philippine Pesos, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Military pilots jettison listening devices as chaff to confuse enemy missiles, the subway is dead quiet in early afternoons, wandering Bacolodnon are known for their one-track minds, and political spontaneity takes a lot of planning. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bacolod's national animal is the Philippine Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Roman Catholic.

Bacolod is ranked 30,865^th in the world and 1^st in Negros Occidental for Smartest Citizens, with 55.67 quips per hour.
