The Reaper of Lord Dominator is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Dee with an iron fist, and notable for its closed borders, ubiquitous missile silos, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 15.803 billion Deedas 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 tiny, corrupt, pro-business government prioritizes Defense, although Industry is also considered important, while Environment and Education receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Testing Zone 1. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Deeda economy, worth a remarkable 8,720 trillion Credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Gambling, and Soda Sales. Average income is a breathtaking 551,835 Credits, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 4,733,051 per year while the poor average 10,981, a ratio of 431 to 1.

War criminals are given full state funerals, policemen regularly conduct midnight raids on closed donut shops to 'collect evidence', personal injury lawyers are demanding compensation from the government after recent reductions in manufacturer liability, and tumbleweeds made of litter adorn city streets. 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. Lord Dominator's national animal is the Cockroach, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Entropism.

Lord Dominator is ranked 307,455th in the world and 319th in Forest for Lowest Crime Rates, with 1.18 law-abiding acts per hour.
