It is hard to draw a distinction between '''1 Infinite Loop, the nation''' and [[1 Infinite Loop#Loop, the person|Loop, the person]], so you probably should read both pages. 1 Infinite Loop was a famous UN delegate of {{region| the East Pacific}} since ancient days.
 
== Region: The East Pacific ==
Near 1 May 2003 the nation of Infinite Loop arrived in the East Pacific, seeking to settle down in a small and sleepy region, however by the end of the month, dreams of Rest and relaxation were cast to the winds, as on 25 May Infinite Loop became Delegate. Three years later, on May 25th, 2006, Loop again hoped for rest. However, the day after turning over the Delegacy to {{nation|Gnidrah}}, Loop was appointed [[Grand Vizier of the East Pacific]], destroying his peaceful rest.
 
==History of Infinite Loop, the nation==
1 Infinite Loop was founded by the orphaned brothers Steveithicus on the plains of the island of Fat Japan* the orphans were raised by a [[Species#Nekomimi|Nekomimi]] who lived in an Apple Grove. From there on it is pretty dull as not much happened until [[WWII]] when a race of Humanoid Lizards called [[the Race]]* invaded Infinite Loop (the 1 only used for official state things) they were fought to a stalemate and peace was established between the two warring factions sharing lands and technology (hence why Loop is farther advanced than other nations in The East Pacific, with the exception of Codex and Packilvania.

The Nekomimi at one point made up only 9% of the population however in 1974 the General Secretary Chihiro Honda-san declared them to be protected and established preservation programs, they recovered dramatically and in 1999 were removed from the protected status and made full citizens.
Line 15 ⟶ 65:
The People of Infinite Loop are varied by race but not by culture, the general population is hard working, sensible and polite, outwardly they appear to live in a state of perpetual 1950's television, with modern bits only sticking out on in places it is impossible to conceal. They prefer for their technology to be semi Hidden, a television will when off and its cabinet closed resemble an old console Radio, their telephones while modern inside, appear to be from the 1970's such modesty permeates to the neighborhood as well, the corners have streetlamps and mailboxes that appear as they did 40 years ago, the roadsigns are 4' tall stone pillars with bronze plaques to tell you the street names, the stopsigns are small compared to the American variety and triangular, the People of Infinite Loop believe that to be ones best one cannot brag about it. however they maintain their quirks, where most countries have their currency in base ten, the Loop currency is in base 8, their bills range from the 1£ to the 2£ 4, 8, 16 32, 64 and 128£ notes, anything under 1£ is however counted in base ten.
 
'''===Races native to Infinite Loop'''===
[[Species#Human|Human]]: Humans make up roughly 45% of the population of Infinite Loop,
 
[[Human]]: Humans make up roughly 45% of the population of Infinite Loop,
[[The Race]]: Lizard humanoids from Tau Ceti, they make up approximately 35% of the Pop.
 
[[Species#Nekomimi|Nekomimi]]: Cat Girls, they comprise approx 20% of the population.
 
[[Cylons]]: Artificial Lifeforms manufactured by Infinite Loop's Cybernetics companies.
about 70% recently gained their freedom and relocated north to {{nation|Unimatrix0}}
 
however the upper grade models were unaffected by the weapon used by {{nation|[[Packilvania}}]]
 
==Religion in Infinite Loop==
Line 55 ⟶ 104:
'''Economics of Infinite Loop'''
The National Debit system operates the core of he Financial system, All monies made by the person are deposited weekly in the system. and during the week they can withdraw up to 65% of the monies for personal use, the other 35% part goes to Tax the other goes to the Retirement and healthcare system. Any monies not used by the person can be deposited into the savings and / or the healt and retirement system. (this is why the country has a 100% tax rate)

==Loop, the person==
It's hard to draw a distinction between 1 Infinite Loop, the nation and Loop, the person, so you probably should read both pages.
 
===Understanding Loop===
Understanding the Name, a lot of folks have inquired about Loop's national name, it is actually
rather simple, Loop is a Mac User, and the name is the street address of Apple Computers Home offices, (Apple Computer, '''1 Infinite Loop''', Cupertino Ca., 95014)
 
Loop has been known as 1IL, IL, Loop, Loopy, 1 Infinate Loop, you there, that stupid Invader, Scourge of the EP, Eater of children, and several Expletives uttered by "enemies" over the last two years.
 
Also for anyone keeping count I have a pile of flags, I have them on my server and would link it here but I rarely turn it on, so it is probably best that I don't. I'll eventually put them someplace where I can show them off.
 
===History of Infinite Loop, the person===
The [[w:Freemasonry|Great Architect of the Universe]] carved 1 Infinite Loop from the rock face of NS on January 25th 2003.
 
I arrived due to the link on Fark.com and Loop was one of two nations I made that night (Probably made three but cannot recall if the other was the 25th or 26th).
 
Loop started out in The South Pacific, as it was the only feeder at the time and immeadiatly moved to Lovely Farkistan,
 
Where it sat until I along with 4 others invented (I say that loosly as I believe that Invading would have been invented whether we did it or not.) Invading. I served as the first Non Nazi Delegate of the region Germany and participated in the De Nazification of Axis I also served as Propaganda minister during the invasion of the Heartland where I still have a puppet living.
 
Shortly after the Heartland I moved to the East Pacific and settled intending to allow Loop to die off, however when Lothlandermore the delegate at the time had to leave to tend to Real life (you know that mystical place where the people speak vocally instead of via text on screen) I was asked to take the reins of the EP and keep the ACC out. I did and well I'm still there, I became Delegate on May 25th of 2003 and have sat in the East ever since.
 
If you need to get a hold of me my Email is 1infiniteloop(at)Gmail.com (I have a few invites if you ask nicely I'll gladly share)
 
===Loop, the One and the Prime===
 
Loop is made almost entirely out of Candy.
 
Also if you are not me, please don't fark with my page.
