The Rosined Razor Wire of Baptised in Acheron is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Jorge Luis Borges with an iron fist, and remarkable for its fear of technology, avant-garde cinema, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 25.28 billion Baptised in Acheronians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Napalm. The average income tax rate is 77.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Baptised in Acheronian economy, worth a remarkable 2,358 trillion brackish aquarias a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Uranium Mining, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 93,284 brackish aquarias, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government regularly hires contractors to construct high rise apartments, pristine wilderness has been trashed in the quest for cheaper oil, it ain't easy to be green enough to be imported into Baptised in Acheron, and people are more interested in gossip about the private lives of politicians than their policies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Baptised in Acheron's national animal is the Death's-head Hawkmoth, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Baptised in Acheron is ranked 42,881^st in the world and 1^st in Bladensburg Dueling Grounds for Safest, scoring 104.79 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
