The Holy Empire of Durmengrade is a titanic, genial nation, notable for its frequent executions, pith helmet sales, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, devout population of 13.639 billion Durmengradeans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, moralistic government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Law & Order, Administration, and Welfare also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 64.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Durmengradean economy, worth 515 trillion rubles a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Basket Weaving, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 37,780 rubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

An aboriginal talking stick is used for leaders' debates at election time, people boast about their low income on their dating profiles, the bonfire of the old paper records can be seen for miles around Durmengrade City, and almost all products in Durmengrade are hand-crafted due to strict employment laws. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Durmengrade's national animal is the cobra, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Durmengrade is ranked 192,444^th in the world and 2,588^th in The catholic military orders for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 539.08 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
