The Community of Precisely Nothing is a massive, economically powerful nation, ruled by Niles Blank with an even hand, and renowned for its national health service. Its compassionate, hard-working, intelligent population of 2.8 billion enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it devotes most of its attentions to Education, with areas such as Religion & Spirituality and Defence receiving almost no funds by comparison. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Void. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 66%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Tourism industry, followed by Book Publishing and Information Technology.

Roads are often attended by round-the-clock construction crews, the police crack down on tax evaders without mercy, shoppers have literally had their hands full since plastic bags were banned, and elevator music has been replaced by thrash metal played at maximum volume. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Precisely Nothing's national animal is the Ant, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Leaf.

Precisely Nothing is ranked 348th in Europeia and 27,509th in the world for Largest Public Sector, scoring 16 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
