The Nomadic Peoples of Charon Azrael is a massive, efficient nation, renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, otherworldly petting zoo, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 4.27 billion Deads have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Education, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 44.0%.

The all-consuming Charon Azraelian economy, worth 264 trillion oboluses a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Uranium Mining, and Cheese Exports. Black market activity is notable. Average income is 62,059 oboluses, with the richest citizens earning 9.9 times as much as the poorest.

The government has spent days debating the merits of a petition calling for a ban on sporks, families must live in a village for a century before they get any say in how it runs, dessert dishes make up the Charon Azraelian breakfast menu, and groups of government workers are declared protected tribes if they venture too deep into the Capitol. Crime, especially youth-related, is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Charon Azrael's national animal is the zombie, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Charon Azrael is ranked 33,147^th in the world and 1,487^th in Balder for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 4,021.67 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
