The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 3.806 billion Screams of Agony 54ians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 11.8%.

The very strong Screams of Agony 54ian economy, worth 230 trillion florins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Gambling, and Woodchip Exports.

Crowds of flag-burning protesters tend to accidentally become crowds of burning protesters, politicians preface their speeches with a declaration that any resemblance to speeches given by individuals living or dead is purely coincidental, former arsonists can be found on local fire brigades, and misbehaving wolves deemed dangerous to the public are shot and hanged by the town hall as a warning to others. Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force. Screams of Agony 54's national animal is the wolf.
