The Republic of Card Demon 2 is a mammoth, orderly nation, renowned for its parental licensing program, keen interest in outer space, and pith helmet sales. The cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.426 billion Card Demon 2ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 81.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Card Demon 2ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,403 trillion Souls a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Trout Farming. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 166,536 Souls, with the richest citizens earning 8.1 times as much as the poorest.

Clergy who start talking about politics are forced to take a holy vow of silence, the homeless more often beg for mercy than money, obstetricians are not allowed to publish ultrasound pictures of fetuses in medical journals, and corporations cut costs by taking away safety-features on their products. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Card Demon 2's national animal is the Goat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Card Demon 2 is ranked 19,526^th in the world and 28^th in The Underworld of Hell for Highest Average Incomes, with 166,536.29 Standard Monetary Units.
