The Republic of Demonic Gate is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Federal Council Chancellor with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, pith helmet sales, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 1.553 billion Demonians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hellish City. The average income tax rate is 46.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Demonian economy, worth 246 trillion Shells a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 158,881 Shells, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Recognizing the Demonian flag qualifies you for citizenship, the government is seen as openly hostile to all religion, faithful allies are always valued, and the weather report is the prisoners' favourite programme. Crime is almost non-existent. Demonic Gate's national animal is the leopard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Demonic Gate is ranked 183,587^th in the world and 150^th in Karma for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring zero on the Clooney Contribution Index.
