The Felsinsel Anocracy of The Death Syndicate is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Governor Alberecht Fahrbach with an iron fist, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, infamous sell-swords, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 4.431 billion Death Syndicate Members 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Law & Order and Industry are also considered important, while Environment and Spirituality aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cemetery Hill. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 75.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Death Syndicatean economy, worth a remarkable 1,354 trillion Kroner a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 305,664 Kroner, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,036,746 per year while the poor average 17,437, a ratio of 116 to 1.

Biotech companies are fined if their jumbled genetic sequences look too familiar, petitioners are increasingly resorting to climbing through Governor Alberecht Fahrbach's window to draw attention to their issues, Dogman-branded weapons are all the rage in the militaristic comic-book community, and chalkboards are replaced with billboards in the classroom. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Death Syndicate's national animal is the Plague, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Kriegskult.

The Death Syndicate is ranked 3,428^th in the world and 78^th in The East Pacific for Fattest Citizens, with 30.22 Obesity Rate.
