The Constitutional Dicatatorship of Religioncord is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Jo Farro with an iron fist, and renowned for its avant-garde cinema, irreverence towards religion, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 4.764 billion Religacords are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The minute, corrupt, pro-business government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Industry, Healthcare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wernwood. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Religioncordian economy, worth 882 trillion Stretchers a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Uranium Mining, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 185,222 Stretchers, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 965,564 per year while the poor average 19,146, a ratio of 50.4 to 1.

The native owl population is in permanent hibernation, giant no-kill traps baited with Bapst Red Ribbon and vintage bicycles have been popping up in back alleys nationwide, the nation's infamous boot camp is more brutal than most battlefields, and whales in captivity live in little more than glorified goldfish bowls. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Religioncord's national animal is the Murlock, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Religioncord is ranked 151,714^th in the world and 8,094^th in The North Pacific for Most Primitive, scoring -269.27 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
