The Deutera Anastasis of Barrenhills is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by ██████████████████ with an iron fist, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, unlimited-speed roads, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.154 billion ттттттттттттттттттs 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 tiny, corrupt government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Administration, Industry, and Education also on the agenda, while International Aid and Welfare receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of ██████████████████. The average income tax rate is 7.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming ██████████████████ economy, worth 772 trillion ██████████████████s a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Gambling, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 125,540 ██████████████████s, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

The state has declared war on the environment and environmentalists by association, law schools are hurrying to teach the "prank defense" to their students, citizens are allowed to rise or fall based on their own merits, and soldiers are taught to throw their guns at their enemies once the bullets have run out. Crime is a major problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Barrenhills's national animal is the ██████████████████, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is 𓂁𓂄𓂁𓂄.

Barrenhills is ranked 328,391st in the world and 376th in Christians for Lowest Crime Rates, with 27.36 law-abiding acts per hour.
