The Trigger-happy Terror of Devi Vytherin is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its avowedly heterosexual populace, otherworldly petting zoo, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.575 billion Deviants 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, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vellum. The average income tax rate is 77.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Devi Vytherinian economy, worth 370 trillion crowns 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 slick, highly efficient, highly specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip 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 43,257 crowns, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

People who tease dwarfs are being cut down to size, government officials who do an offal job get smoked, strange looking men with big red noses are found hiding behind bushes and inside dustbins, and the nation has a strict 'no marauding undead' law (Devi Vytherin has found 1 easter egg). Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Devi Vytherin's national animal is the hawkbear, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Devi Vytherin is ranked 30,953rd in the world and 1,693rd in Lazarus for Safest, scoring 108.63 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
