The Watchfires of Red Death-3 is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its frequent executions, compulsory military service, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 24.882 billion Red Death-3ians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 18.4%.

The very strong Red Death-3ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,014 trillion $$s a year, is led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 40,780 $$s, with the richest citizens earning 6.8 times as much as the poorest.

Every politician claims to be at least 1% Native Red Death-3ian, builders across Red Death-3 are blocked up with orders for new public loos, directors of low-budget sci-fi films are flocking to use Red Death-3 City as a backdrop, and Jennifer Government is banned. Crime is moderate, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Red Death-3's national animal is the Death's-head Hawkmoth, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Red Death-3 is ranked 142,307^th in the world and 1^st in Che Guevara for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 1,324.16 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
