Location: The Proletariat Coalition

Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Kingdom of Infernialis is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The One with an even hand, and notable for its hatred of cheese. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 12.929 billion enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, the Environment, and Social Equality. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Party. The average income tax rate is 100%. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market in Tourism.

Public loudspeakers constantly tell citizens they are "happy people", leather-clad individuals can be seen walking their slaves in public parks, companies struggle to cover for the hordes of employees on parental leave, and recent protests against birds flying too low have resulted in bloodshed. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Infernialis's national animal is the tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Proletarian Credit.

Infernialis is ranked 16th in The Proletariat Coalition and 101,499th in the world for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -18 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
