The Devilish Delinquent of Devious is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by santa claus with an iron fist, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, barren, inhospitable landscape, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 10.867 billion Deviousians 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 tiny, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Administration, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Deviousian economy, worth a remarkable 1,173 trillion cashes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 108,002 cashes, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 912,291 per year while the poor average 2,364, a ratio of 385 to 1.

Retirement homes are filled with foreign war criminals, investigative journalism into politicians' misbehaviour has abruptly ended, airplanes have giant grilles on their noses to knock drones out of their path, and a milk bath costs more than bathing in money. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Devious's national animal is the bat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Devious is ranked 247,434^th in the world and 30^th in The Brotherhood of Malice for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 73.44 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
