The ᴮᵉᵃᵗᵉⁿ ᵃⁿᵈ ᵀᵒʳᵗᵘʳᵉᵈ ˢᵒᵘˡ of Deity of Torment is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by The Tormented Deity with an iron fist, and remarkable for its smutty television, complete lack of public education, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.971 billion Tormented Followers are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, well-organized government stops and the rest of society begins, but it prioritizes Industry, with Administration, Defense, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Law & Order and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Tormentors Lair. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 86.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Tormented Worshipper economy, worth 512 trillion Tortured Souls a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Basket Weaving industry. Average income is an impressive 103,012 Tortured Souls, with the richest citizens earning 9.3 times as much as the poorest.

The government has implemented minimum wage laws, it isn't a secret plot without caviar and foie gras, The Tormentors Lair's main city thoroughfare has been blocked by a row of leyland cypresses that mysteriously appeared overnight, and descriptions of properties as "a stone's throw from the city centre" require a trebuchet to be true. Crime is pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Deity of Torment's national animal is the Torturer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Pan-Generalism.

Deity of Torment is ranked 8,342^nd in the world and 1^st in Shin Godzilla for Largest Black Market, with 737 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
