The Daemons of Khorne of Skull Throne is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Khorne with an iron fist, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, keen interest in outer space, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 3.494 billion Daemons are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is effectively ruled by the Department of Defense, although Industry and Administration are also considered important, while Welfare and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Realm of Chaos. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 46.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Daemon economy, worth 776 trillion Skulls 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Gambling. 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 an amazing 222,195 Skulls, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,011,217 per year while the poor average 29,847, a ratio of 33.9 to 1.

Small shoes often wash up on the beach, immigrant herding has become a national pastime, wood-framed catapults are ready to launch diseased corpses into besieged cities, and the 3rd Airborne Beekeepers are the most feared regiment in the Daemon military. Crime is pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Skull Throne's national animal is the Bloodthirster, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Skull Throne is ranked 283,380^th in the world and 323^rd in The Black Hawks for Safest, scoring 3.85 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
