The COVID of Doomsday flu is a colossal, orderly nation, notable for its burgeoning hawk population. The hard-working, cynical population of 4.383 billion Doomsday fluans 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, moralistic, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 12.1%.

The very strong Doomsday fluan economy, worth 254 trillion rubledollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Retail, Soda Sales, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 57,972 rubledollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 182,081 per year while the poor average 14,132, a ratio of 12.9 to 1.

Crime is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Doomsday flu's national animal is the hawk.

Doomsday flu is ranked 186,412^th in the world and 1^st in Dssdd for Most Cultured, scoring 64 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
