The State of Deus Te Benedicat

“God, Homeland, Liberty”

Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The State of Deus Te Benedicat is a gargantuan, genial nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. The hard-working, democratic, devout population of 16.334 billion Deus Te Benedicatians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The tiny, liberal, outspoken government is effectively ruled by the Department of Spirituality, with Industry and Environment not funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.6%.

The Deus Te Benedicatian economy, worth 725 trillion betales a year, is led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Soda Sales. Average income is 44,424 betales, with the richest citizens earning 5.9 times as much as the poorest.

Witnesses have to run a gauntlet of mob enforcers to testify at trials, it is illegal to make racist remarks in public, the government awards prizes to television shows featuring stereotype-breaking minority roles, and Deus Te Benedicat has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is moderate, probably because of the absence of a police force. Deus Te Benedicat's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Deus Te Benedicat is ranked 273,466^th in the world and 8^th in United Assembly for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.69 kickbacks per hour.
