The Infernal Hatred of Prince Lucifer is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Lucifer Morningstar with an iron fist, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, public floggings, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.4 billion Demons are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hellfire Keep. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 51.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Demonic economy, worth a remarkable 2,279 trillion Souls a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 271,374 Souls, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,973,366 per year while the poor average 11,701, a ratio of 168 to 1.

Demons have replaced bears in a popular idiom, savvy nightclub-goers know that structurally unsound venues sell the cheapest drinks, official government guidance encourages binge behaviors, and city sidewalks are crowded with overweight people. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Prince Lucifer's national animal is the Green Mamba, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Satanism.

Prince Lucifer is ranked 64,605^th in the world and 216^th in The Underworld of Hell for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 4,129.34 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
