The Pleased to Meet You of Devil is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by The Robot Devil with an iron fist, and notable for its deadly medical pandemics, ban on automobiles, and parental licensing program. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 32.185 billion Fallen Angels 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, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hell. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.4%.

The all-consuming Demonic economy, worth a remarkable 3,705 trillion River Styx Coins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Gambling, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is an impressive 115,133 River Styx Coins, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 819,161 per year while the poor average 5,351, a ratio of 153 to 1.

Politicians are often seen with soldiers pointing guns at their heads, parents are held criminally responsible for their children's crimes, charity no longer begins at home, and one-stop superstores divide and conquer family businesses. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force. Devil's national animal is the Goat, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Devil is ranked 48,991st in the world and 5th in New York for Highest Average Incomes, with 115,133.97 Standard Monetary Units.
