The Theocracy of Card Demon 232 is a mammoth, orderly nation, notable for its smutty television, free-roaming dinosaurs, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.018 billion Card Demon 232ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 62.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Card Demon 232ian economy, worth 685 trillion Souls a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Trout Farming. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 136,604 Souls, with the richest citizens earning 7.8 times as much as the poorest.

Chicken farmers must rise before the sun every day to gag their cockerels, creating dance remixes is the newest form of conspicuous consumption, almost all products in Card Demon 232 are hand-crafted due to strict employment laws, and compass sales have gone south. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Card Demon 232's national animal is the Goat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Card Demon 232 is ranked 19,084th in the world and 99th in The Underworld of Hell for Largest Black Market, with 184 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
