The Heralds of Immolation of Laws and Bylaws is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Will Disenfranchise with an iron fist, and remarkable for its deadly medical pandemics, vat-grown people, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 38.728 billion Heralds of Immolation are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The relatively small, corrupt, socially-minded government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order and Spirituality also on the agenda, while Welfare and Social Policy receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Filibuster. The average income tax rate is 59.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient chaos-born economy, worth an astonishing 10,490 trillion subpoenas a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 270,884 subpoenas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government is seen to favor traditionalist religions, college students make ends meet by selling their kidneys, Will Disenfranchise's office has a newly installed Max-Man arcade game programmed by a 5th-grader, and roads are often attended by round-the-clock construction crews. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force. Laws and Bylaws's national animal is the lawyer, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christianity.

Laws and Bylaws is ranked 2,364^th in the world and 55^th in the Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 93.7 flags saluted per person per day.
