The Empire of Deviae is a colossal, orderly nation, renowned for its flagrant waste-dumping, smutty television, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 3.642 billion Deviaeans 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 relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Industry, and Administration also on the agenda, while Environment and Spirituality aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Deviae City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 18.6%.

The all-consuming Deviaean economy, worth 422 trillion kronor a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Gambling, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 116,051 kronor, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 676,292 per year while the poor average 9,391, a ratio of 72.0 to 1.

Blind students are at a disadvantage now that test papers printed in braille have been discontinued, a National Academy regulates grammar and usage, military minds worry that 'the blue screen of death' on brand new operating systems may be a literal description, and the government is reining in public spending. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a well-funded police force. Deviae's national animal is the lion, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Deviae is ranked 48,141^st in the world and 5^th in League Of Allied Powers for Highest Average Incomes, with 116,051.32 Standard Monetary Units.
