The State of Devillier is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, renowned for its absence of drug laws, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 31.388 billion Devillierians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.0%.

The very strong Devillierian economy, worth a remarkable 1,193 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Retail, Cheese Exports, and Trout Farming. Average income is 38,022 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 258,507 per year while the poor average 2,043, a ratio of 126 to 1.

Voting is voluntary, the tenet of free speech is held dear, and Devillier has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Devillier's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Devillier is ranked 34,516^th in the world and 180^th in State for Fattest Citizens, with 14.99 Obesity Rate.
