The Theocracy of Scripturia is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Jesus with an even hand, and renowned for its frequent executions, free-roaming dinosaurs, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, devout population of 2.667 billion Scripturians are prohibited from doing almost everything but make sure no one in government gets away with anything either.

The enormous, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Temple of God. The average income tax rate is 85.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Scripturian economy, worth 146 trillion Ephass of Barley a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Book Publishing. Average income is 54,788 Ephass of Barley, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Catcalling has been replaced by slut-shaming, the government is seen to favor traditionalist religions, the nation's only university is the School of Hard Knocks, and cogitators and mass debaters are skiving off work to hang around the National Symposium Park. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Scripturia's national animal is the God's Creation, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

Scripturia is ranked 99,868th in the world and 197th in Christians for Most Developed, scoring 61.45 on the Human Development Index.
