The Republic of Black Centurion is a mammoth, pleasant nation, notable for its burgeoning elephant population. The quiet, industrious population of 9.507 billion Black Centurionians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 27.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Black Centurionian economy, worth 328 trillion deniers a year, is quite specialized and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 34,519 deniers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Black Centurion's national animal is the elephant.

Black Centurion is ranked 291,081^st in the world and 2^nd in PCMPCMPCMPCM for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring -40 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
