The Office of Naval Intelligence is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Officer Burke with an iron fist, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, infamous sell-swords, and digital currency. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 8.03 billion Officers are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Administration also on the agenda, while Environment and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Restricted Area 005. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 80.2%.

The powerhouse Officer economy, worth a remarkable 1,253 trillion Credits 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, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. 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 impressive 156,108 Credits, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 592,547 per year while the poor average 28,542, a ratio of 20.8 to 1.

It is illegal to make racist remarks in public, teen parties are often ruined by wet blanket chaperones, when flight control tells pilots to alter course the usual reply is "No, YOU move!", and terrorist videos start by thanking their sponsors. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Naval Intelligence's national animal is the Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Naval Intelligence is ranked 23,175^th in the world and 846^th in Balder for Highest Average Incomes, with 156,108.27 Standard Monetary Units.
