The Armed Republic of DeathSquadron is a huge, orderly nation, renowned for its public floggings, enslaved workforce, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 759 million DeathSquadronians 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 medium-sized, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Administration, and Education are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 27.5%.

The powerhouse DeathSquadronian economy, worth 68.7 trillion Mandalores a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 90,460 Mandalores, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 498,970 per year while the poor average 8,293, a ratio of 60.2 to 1.

When flight control tells pilots to alter course the usual reply is "No, YOU move!", the nation's universities are often mistaken for foreign embassies, giggling teens are asked to put their mouths on rubber dolls, and economists have been named Invertebrates of the Year. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. DeathSquadron's national animal is the Mandalorian, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

DeathSquadron is ranked 279,465th in the world and 9,754th in Lazarus for Most Stationary, with 6.80316925708 days.
