The Devil in training of Vogan is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Vogan with an iron fist, and remarkable for its frequent executions, enforced nudity, and punitive income tax rates. The cynical, humorless population of 24.434 billion Voganians 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 large, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Public Transport, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hella. The average income tax rate is 50.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Voganian economy, worth 866 trillion Wakes 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 slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Book Publishing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Pizza Delivery, 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 35,478 Wakes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Cremation is compulsory for the deceased, newspapers cannot report anything about politicians without their explicit consent, Vogan has just been declared ruler of Vogan in an international press conference, and Vogan has designated Hella as its capital city. Crime is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vogan's national animal is the wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Hellism.

Vogan is ranked 127,387th in the world and 3rd in The Islands of the Great Wrath for Most Stationary, with 265.4608370494 days.
