The Holy Empire of Lord God Himself is a gargantuan, genial nation, remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, state-planned economy, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical population of 29.523 billion Lord God Himselfians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded, well-organized government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Spirituality, and Education. The average income tax rate is 90.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but sluggish Lord God Himselfian economy, worth 671 trillion harps a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports. Average income is 22,757 harps, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

"The Daily Sacrifice" is a routine segment of morning news shows, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, divorce is illegal, and the nation has opened its arms to an influx of refugees. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lord God Himself's national animal is the angelfish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Lord God Himself is ranked 59,405th in the world and 4th in Heaven for Safest, scoring 99.22 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
