The Production Team of Code000 is a titanic, orderly nation, remarkable for its smutty television, triple-decker prams, and soft-spoken computers. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 10.139 billion Code000ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cerasus. The average income tax rate is 58.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Code000ian economy, worth 330 trillion dollars 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, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Furniture Restoration, and Cheese Exports. 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 32,587 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

WhoTube speedrunners always have at least one viewer, citizens can be frequently spotted going about their business stark naked, brazen mayors claim official expenses to pay for their drug habits, and modern readers say a story is worthless without hyperlinked footnotes and editable wiki format. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Code000's national animal is the crocodile, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Code000 is ranked 256,519th in the world and 961st in Artificial Solar System for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring -7.03 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
