The Hellfire Fantasy Land of Drachover is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Lucyfer - CEO-In-Chief with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, flagrant waste-dumping, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 8.667 billion Drachoverians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The tiny, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hell's Quarter. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 2.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Drachoverian economy, worth a remarkable 2,531 trillion mountain dew caps a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Soda Sales. Average income is an amazing 292,045 mountain dew caps, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,685,952 per year while the poor average 3,264, a ratio of 822 to 1.

APCs on school runs disgorge kids via assault ramps, the government is known to care more about its buildings than its people, the Department of Reduction of Bureaucratic Red Tape has set up a working committee to investigate its own excessive paperwork, and movie references are legally admissible in court. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Drachover's national animal is the lowland duke, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Corporatist Evangelism.

Drachover is ranked 22,212th in the world and 311th in Ambition for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 5,691.69 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
