The World of Sathan is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Satan with an iron fist, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, smutty television, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 37.864 billion Sathanians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Valhalla. The average income tax rate is 96.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Sathanian economy, worth an astonishing 10,714 trillion dracs 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Uranium Mining, Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Information Technology. 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 amazing 282,977 dracs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government is chasing the gold at the end of the rainbow, studio executives abandon tragic stories of star-crossed lovers because "it's been done", the nation's faithful often say there is a higher power watching over them, and terrorist videos start by thanking their sponsors. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sathan's national animal is the werewolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Satanism.

Sathan is ranked 2,371st in the world and 4th in Hell for Highest Poor Incomes, with 206,953.55 Standard Monetary Units.
