The Dictatorship of YourDoomIsAtHand is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its punitive income tax rates. Its hard-nosed, cynical population of 1.976 billion are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Defence, Law & Order, and the Environment. The average income tax rate is 100%. A healthy private sector is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry.

Citizens are expected to be proficient in at least five languages, the police force is rumoured to be made up of evil shadows with no souls, cremation is compulsory for the deceased, and suppression of pro-democracy protests is a daily occurrence. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. YourDoomIsAtHand's national animal is the psychotic meerkat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the doom beetle.

YourDoomIsAtHand is ranked 1st in the region and 3,899th in the world for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry.
