The Episcopal Administration of Great-Desolates is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Bishop Pardo with an even hand, and renowned for its frequent executions, rampant corporate plagiarism, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 7.248 billion Desolates have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pyongyang. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 15.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Desolate economy, worth a remarkable 1,478 trillion ₩ons a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 204,001 ₩ons, with the richest citizens earning 6.1 times as much as the poorest.

The government is on the side of working people (like CEOs, bankers and billionaires), starving citizens are offered nuclear pasta, it turns out that trees grow on ₩ons, and when their backs are against the walls Desolates look out for gay men. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Great-Desolates's national animal is the Dragon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Catholic Church.

Great-Desolates is ranked 28,999^th in the world and 1,387^th in Balder for Highest Poor Incomes, with 76,571.13 Standard Monetary Units.
