The Theocracy of Inquisition is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by Astrid Weisberg with a fair hand, and notable for its daily referendums, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 8.913 billion Inquisitionians 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 medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Holy Terra. The average income tax rate is 77.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Inquisitionian economy, worth a remarkable 1,915 trillion golds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 214,952 golds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

The Inquisitionian Arts Council pays teenagers to sit through opera performances, preschools put children down for naps with milk, cookies, and a gruesome story of vengeance, supermarket milk is a shear-thickening fluid that can stop small-caliber bullets, and 1% of global paper production is bound for the National Archive. Crime is totally unknown. Inquisition's national animal is the wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Inquisition is ranked 159,558^th in the world and 2^nd in Eye of Terror for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 7,776.75 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
