The Scarlet Symphony of Singu1arity is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Leader with an iron fist, and notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, sprawling nuclear power plants, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 21.434 billion Singu1arityians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The relatively small, corrupt government prioritizes Industry, although Defense, Law & Order, and Education are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Singu1arity City. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Singu1arityian economy, worth a remarkable 9,744 trillion Really Round Pebbles a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 454,630 Really Round Pebbles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Would-be emigrants are told "abandon all hope all ye who would exit here", the government defends a woman's right to choose, artificial intelligences seeking exciting work are overcome with ennui, and the diplomatic corps stinks. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Singu1arity's national animal is the flying hippo, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Singu1arity is ranked 14,756th in the world and 244th in the Rejected Realms for Most Stationary, with 1,793.124546844 days.
