The Most Serene Republic of The Holy Devil of Evil is a huge, devout nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 358 million are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.
The government -- a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, pro-business morass -- is mainly concerned with Defence, although Religion & Spirituality and Law & Order are secondary priorities. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of 666th layer of Hell. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 14%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Uranium Mining industry, followed by Arms Manufacturing and Gambling.
The nation has recently been attributed to the funding of terrorist organisations, citizens who fail to follow the official national religion are executed, a survey of the nation's rivers and children has shown that pesticide levels are at an all-time regional high, and murderers frequently escape punishment by claiming they were protecting their honour. Crime is crippling, probably because of the country's utter lack of prisons. The Holy Devil of Evil's national animal is the Evil cat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the Evil dollar.
The Holy Devil of Evil is ranked 13th in the region and 3,760th in the world for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector.
