The Hound of Hell

The Theocracy of The Hound of Hell is a colossal, orderly nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, state-planned economy, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 4.435 billion Hound of Hellians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 71.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Hound of Hellian economy, worth 144 trillion Souls a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Pizza Delivery, Tourism, and Gambling. Average income is 32,533 Souls, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Foreign leaders' Twitcher accounts are monitored for potential threats to national security, Leader is the self-declared God of all The Hound of Hell, Leader has been self-declared as the Most Supreme Magnificent Overlord of Everything You Ever Saw, and all government facilities are built in the subterranean citadel of The Hound of Hell City. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Hound of Hell's national animal is the Cerberus, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

The Hound of Hell is ranked 288,059th in the world and 28th in Coven of Witches for Highest Average Incomes, with 32,533.82 Standard Monetary Units.
