The Populist Movement of Occupy Hell is a titanic, orderly nation, remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, state-planned economy, and infamous sell-swords. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 13.372 billion Occupy Hellians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 34.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Occupy Hellian economy, worth a remarkable 1,847 trillion Dubloons a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Gambling, Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Retail. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 138,181 Dubloons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Twice-daily toilet inspection rotas for government buildings are archived for public appraisal, Big Brother is still watching even when your big brother is dead, the nation has always been at war with Bigtopia, and sales of superhero insurance have skyrocketed after the government abandoned the police in favor of vigilantes. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Occupy Hell's national animal is the Dolphin, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Occupy Hell is ranked 270,888th in the world and 138th in Hell for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring -4.47 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
