The Katechon of Holy State of Jerusalem is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Crusader King Jebvs Seymour Theostalto with an iron fist, and notable for its enslaved workforce, strictly enforced bedtime, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.156 billion Outremarines are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Industry, and Education are also considered important, while International Aid receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hierosilmae-Montgisard. The average income tax rate is 99.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Outremer economy, worth a remarkable 1,452 trillion Byzantine Shekels a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 281,701 Byzantine Shekels, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Military doctrine says not to open fire until you see the "beady little eyes" of Johnny Foreigner, a typical peasant's life cycle leads from birth to the gallows, it is mandatory to learn evolution in schools, and Renaissance frescos are being chiselled off public walls. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Holy State of Jerusalem's national animal is the Goy, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Ghibeline Orthodoxy.

Holy State of Jerusalem is ranked 5,059^th in the world and 3^rd in Der Leibwache for Most Developed, scoring 94.65 on the Human Development Index.
