The Theocracy of The Papal Curia is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Your Holiness with an iron fist, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, museums and concert halls, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 3.052 billion Papal Curians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Administration, and Spirituality. The average income tax rate is 78.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Papal Curian economy, worth 225 trillion Lire a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 73,921 Lire, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The 'sing-a-long with Your Holiness' album is a popular souvenir, songwriters compete to see who can come up with the most blasphemous lyrics, 3D printed organs are a breath of new life for the sick and elderly, and solid-gold toilets are Papal Curian prisons' least expensive furnishings. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Papal Curia's national animal is the Lamb, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Catholicism.

The Papal Curia is ranked 262,851^st in the world and 14^th in Greater Prussia for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 16,114.86 Standard Monetary Units.
