The Theocracy of Ad Honorem Dei is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Prince-Archabbot Daniel with an even hand, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, frequent executions, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, devout population of 13.965 billion Angeli have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of De Civitate Dei. The average income tax rate is 85.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Angelican economy, worth a remarkable 1,178 trillion dollars a year, is highly specialized and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 84,356 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Raindances intended to summon storms instead attract tourists, political candidates who don't release their birth certificates are presumed to have been born in Maxtopia, people who have never eaten chicken are told it tastes a bit like crocodile, and doves are frequently shot for looking at people 'in a funny way'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ad Honorem Dei's national animal is the dove, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Roman Catholic.

Ad Honorem Dei is ranked 194,941^st in the world and 3,261^st in The East Pacific for Most Corrupt Governments, with 1.57 kickbacks per hour.
