The Church of New Vatican of Illuminati is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Ascended Prior Nyx with an even hand, and remarkable for its teetotalling pirates, anti-smoking policies, and flagrant waste-dumping. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 9.754 billion Illuminated Individuals are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large, corrupt, moralistic government prioritizes Spirituality, with Law & Order, Education, and Defense also on the agenda, while Social Policy and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Second Jerusalem. The average income tax rate is 31.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Illuminati economy, worth 805 trillion Crypto-Crowns a year, is extremely specialized and mostly made up of the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 82,553 Crypto-Crowns, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Nobody looks each other in the eye at neighborhood block parties any more, men who wear pink are seen as dangerously unmanly, politicians have literally dirty hands from their extracurricular activities, and slow dancing is made trickier when Auntie Edna insists on standing between the couple's arms. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Vatican of Illuminati's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Mysticism.

New Vatican of Illuminati is ranked 57,842^nd in the world and 3^rd in The Illuminati for Lowest Crime Rates, with 72.25 law-abiding acts per hour.
