The Mad King of Hell of The Stalker is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by The Mad King of Hell with an iron fist, and notable for its closed borders, ubiquitous missile silos, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 18.178 billion Damned Souls are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Spirituality, Industry, and Environment also on the agenda, while Welfare and Social Policy are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hell. The average income tax rate is 99.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Damned to Hell economy, worth an astonishing 13,540 trillion Souls a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, Retail, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is a breathtaking 744,883 Souls, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

Family bonding sessions are considered immoral and are banned, citizens are told that foreigners are hungry ghosts who eat the flesh of the overly curious, lottery winners spend most of their money on security, and many in The Stalker are born in the purple. Crime is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. The Stalker's national animal is the White Rabbit, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Discordianism.

The Stalker is ranked 179,444^th in the world and 42^nd in Hell for Nudest, with 64.75 Cheeks Per Square Mile.
