The Empire of Diablo s is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Diablo s with an even hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, fear of technology, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-nosed, devout population of 1.436 billion Diablo sians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 34.6%.

The powerhouse Diablo sian economy, worth 124 trillion baht 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 black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Retail, and Furniture Restoration. 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 86,778 baht, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 296,008 per year while the poor average 18,726, a ratio of 15.8 to 1.

The thin blue line is composed of picketing police officers demanding better pensions, public shaming has become the favoured form of punishment, autocrats are persona non grata, and there's more than one way to skin a diplomat. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force. Diablo s's national animal is the gote, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Diablo s is ranked 267,711th in the world and 191st in Hell for Most Patriotic, with 0.88 flags saluted per person per day.
