The Theocracy of God Fearing Devoted is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Brian Copeland with an iron fist, and remarkable for its triple-decker prams, zero percent divorce rate, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 15.941 billion God Fearing Devotedians 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, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Spirituality, and Industry also on the agenda, while Environment and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bethselem. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient God Fearing Devotedian economy, worth a remarkable 6,930 trillion Coins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is an amazing 434,786 Coins, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 4,072,245 per year while the poor average 3,913, a ratio of 1,040 to 1.

Billions of Coins are being blown on orbital weapons development, a stocking with a crooked seam or a tie without a full Windsor knot are grounds for instant dismissal, celebrity foodies are biting a huge chunk out of the government budget, and soldiers stream their classified military operations live for millions of fans. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force. God Fearing Devoted's national animal is the Snake, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Lutheranism.

God Fearing Devoted is ranked 2,606th in the world and 18th in Fifth Empire for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 19,323.08 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
