The Diabolical Imperium of Gehenna Primus is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by The Malificar with an iron fist, and notable for its public floggings, infamous sell-swords, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 4.926 billion Gehennans are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Industry also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chernograd. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 52.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Gehennan economy, worth a remarkable 2,012 trillion Imperial Credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 408,501 Imperial Credits, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,029,364 per year while the poor average 46,518, a ratio of 43.6 to 1.

Relationships often break down when doctors tell couples they are genetically incompatible, old folks yearn for the days when young people saw bloodthirsty death matches with their own eyes instead of through a screen, babies are increasingly seen as a luxury, and popular websites like NationStates are blocked for "national security". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gehenna Primus's national animal is the Dragon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is nonexistent.

Gehenna Primus is ranked 15,208th in the world and 14th in Hell for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 9,179.38 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
