The Interdimensional Domain of Particle is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by necromancer with an iron fist, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, ubiquitous missile silos, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 24.78 billion horde are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of 不死. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient evil economy, worth an astonishing 22,837 trillion hugs 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, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Soda Sales, and Retail. 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 a breathtaking 921,604 hugs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A favorite "life hack" for gap year backpackers is to pretend to be homeless for government handouts, many friends and relatives of necromancer have been given ambassador jobs in tropical island nations, doughnut-makers claim their products are healthy because they are fortified with vitamins, and SOS from foreign ships mean "shoot on sight". Crime is totally unknown. Particle's national animal is the darkness, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is magic.

Particle is ranked 275^th in the world and 2^nd in Yggdrasil for Most Cultured, scoring 634 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
