The Reformed Demonic Assembly of Zaktoutr is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by He Who Is Not to be Named with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, keen interest in outer space, and complete lack of public education. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 38.518 billion Zaktoutrians 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 minute, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order is also considered important, while Environment and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of R'lyeh. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Zaktoutrian economy, worth an astonishing 25,828 trillion Souls a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Retail, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is a breathtaking 670,559 Souls, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 4,248,146 per year while the poor average 44,036, a ratio of 96.5 to 1.

Extraordinary rendition is nothing out of the ordinary, in court almost every witness is a hostile witness, teachers prefer to give 'Maybe, Maybe Not' tests when dealing with sensitive subjects, and homeless people can be found sleeping on streets in front of unoccupied second homes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Zaktoutr's national animal is the Devil, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The Church of the Abyss.

Zaktoutr is ranked 290,890^th in the world and 1^st in Awful Circle for Highest Food Quality, scoring 1.14 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
