The Empire of Very Evil Larry is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Very Evil Larry with an iron fist, and remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, state-planned economy, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 1.575 billion Evilites 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, well-organized government is effectively ruled by the Department of Defense, with Law & Order, Industry, and Administration also on the agenda, while Environment and Social Policy receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Karbakalaxia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 64.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Eviltian economy, worth 366 trillion Larries a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Gambling, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 232,626 Larries, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 771,705 per year while the poor average 52,337, a ratio of 14.7 to 1.

Asking 'a penny for your thoughts?' draws law enforcement response, everyone suspects that everyone else is a terrorist, the army's use of chemical weapons leaves a bad taste in the mouth, and young children are regularly seen wagering pocket money at blackjack tables. Crime is a major problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Very Evil Larry's national animal is the Larry cat, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is loyalty to Very Evil Larry.

Very Evil Larry is ranked 641^st in the world and 1^st in The end of a time for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 22,822.38 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
