The Gatekeeper of The Graveyards is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Queen Rose with an even hand, and remarkable for its enslaved workforce, ritual sacrifices, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-working, humorless, devout population of 36.822 billion Graveyardsians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Camp Bisco. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 69.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Graveyardsian economy, worth a remarkable 7,043 trillion raids a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 191,278 raids, with the richest citizens earning 6.7 times as much as the poorest.

The bonfire of the old paper records can be seen for miles around Camp Bisco, the government is under the thumb of countless special interests, money can't buy happiness but it can buy immunity to prosecution, and passionate nomination battles are often as intense as general elections. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Graveyards's national animal is the fire tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The Branch.

The Graveyards is ranked 9,446^th in the world and 2^nd in The Graveyard for Lowest Crime Rates, with 102.11 law-abiding acts per hour.
