The Theocracy of Holy Bones is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by God-Emperor with an iron fist, and notable for its frequent executions, zero percent divorce rate, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 1.018 billion Holybones are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Holy Booty Bay. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 14.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Holy Bonesian economy, worth 104 trillion Goldbones a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Gambling, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 102,873 Goldbones, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 780,297 per year while the poor average 3,787, a ratio of 206 to 1.

The arms industry is backed by government subsidies and harsh anti-protest laws are in place, pristine wilderness has been trashed in the quest for cheaper oil, skateboarding is punishable by heavy fines, and immigrant teachers use fat stacks of cash as teaching aids. Crime is a problem, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Holy Bones's national animal is the Skullbone Whiffer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Holy Bones is ranked 4,304^th in the world and 10^th in The Frontier Sea for Fattest Citizens, with 29.13 Obesity Rate.
