The End of All Things is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 7.098 billion All Thingsians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The tiny, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.4%.

The strong All Thingsian economy, worth 325 trillion rubledollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Soda Sales, and Retail. Average income is 45,857 rubledollars, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 297,274 per year while the poor average 2,829, a ratio of 105 to 1.

Imprisonment is the leading cause of disownment, citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements, organ donation is compulsory, and the nation's universities are often mistaken for foreign embassies. Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. All Things's national animal is the malicious Osiran shadow hawk, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

All Things is ranked 109,227^th in the world and 3,908^th in The catholic military orders for Largest Populations, with 7.10 billion capita.
