The Dominion of Card Hellhound 2 is a tiny, safe nation, renowned for its frequent executions, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed population of 16 million Card Hellhound 2ians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 59.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The fair Card Hellhound 2ian economy, worth 524 billion Linguins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 32,785 Linguins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Politicians frequently make unusual poses during speeches in hopes of inspiring the next internet fad, "Darwin's Disease" is a growing cause of death, the only women behind bars are barmaids, and the government's foreign policy statements are less threatening than a World Assembly cease-and-desist letter. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Card Hellhound 2's national animal is the Hellhound.

Card Hellhound 2 is ranked 244,185th in the world and 2nd in Hellhound Forest for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 28.54 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
