The Burning Legions of Hellslayer is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by Grand Architect Balthazar Sturm with an iron fist, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, vat-grown people, and strictly enforced bedtime. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 16.342 billion demons 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 relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Inferneum. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 28.6%.

The frighteningly efficient demonic economy, worth a remarkable 7,273 trillion Sols a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 445,096 Sols, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 4,121,583 per year while the poor average 4,610, a ratio of 893 to 1.

Crime pays, government officials are phoning up good-looking celebrities to say they want to breed with them, pallbearers at military funerals dive for cover when they hear the three-volley salute, and Grand Architect Balthazar Sturm is going to the moon. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hellslayer's national animal is the wyvern, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Temple of Umbra.

Hellslayer is ranked 145^th in the world and 2^nd in Commonwealth of Sovereign States for Greatest Rich-Poor Divides, with 893.92 Rich To Poor Income Ratio.
