The First of First And Only Archive is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Leeeeeeader with an even hand, and remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, parental licensing program, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 15.026 billion Ones are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The tiny, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dotdotdot. The average income tax rate is 8.3%.

The frighteningly efficient First And Only Archivean economy, worth a remarkable 3,508 trillion Unoes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Furniture Restoration. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 233,522 Unoes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.5 times as much as the poorest.

The mob vote is a crucial electoral demographic, citizens are constantly disappointed to find their nuisance neighbours are still alive, traffic jams are a common sight due to construction work from a massive overhaul of the nation's freeways, and foreign lack of enthusiasm for First And Only Archivean nose-flute disco metal is seen as a reasonable casus belli. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. First And Only Archive's national animal is the weird frogcat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Hamsterfarianism.

First And Only Archive is ranked 282,927th in the world and 315th in Forest for Safest, scoring 4.42 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
