The Most Serene Republic of Satanic is a massive, cultured nation, renowned for its compulsory military service and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 1.915 billion Satanicians 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 medium-sized, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Law & Order, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 30.5%.

The strong Satanician economy, worth 106 trillion Doubloons a year, is dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 55,722 Doubloons, with the richest citizens earning 8.2 times as much as the poorest.

Elementary school students are required to master Bach's Chaconne in D before graduation, military spending recently hit a new high, the nation's student exchange programs are something of a one way street, and Harry Potter books are banned. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Satanic's national animal is the Devil.

Satanic is ranked 122,819^th in the world and 6,224^th in Lazarus for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 925 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
