The Free Land of Impending Damnation is a gargantuan, cultured nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and rampant corporate plagiarism. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 45.198 billion Impending Damnationians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Welfare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 52.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Impending Damnationian economy, worth an astonishing 13,794 trillion marks a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Gambling. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 305,208 marks, with the richest citizens earning 6.7 times as much as the poorest.

Impending Damnationian police have to pay out of their own pockets for bulletproof vests, female newsreaders distract the nation by breastfeeding during broadcast, there's more vermin than ever on the metro, and election results are often delayed for weeks to count the expat votes. 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. Impending Damnation's national animal is the nympho, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Impending Damnation is ranked 294,310^th in the world and 203^rd in Hell for Lowest Crime Rates, with 1.74 law-abiding acts per hour.
