The Grand and Most Serene Duchy of Unimaginable Doom is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Grand Ducal Highness Lucius Verus II with an even hand, and notable for its closed borders, free-roaming dinosaurs, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 20.925 billion Duxians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Astor Citadel. The average income tax rate is 98.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Dux economy, worth a remarkable 5,851 trillion Gold Sovereigns a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Arms Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 279,619 Gold Sovereigns, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.

The government response to disaster victims starving for bread is "let them eat stale cake", the smell of napalm in the morning is usually alongside grilled Sable Hawk, obstetricians are not allowed to publish ultrasound pictures of fetuses in medical journals, and the government has officially clarified that "wee on your hands to save time" does not count as proper hygiene. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Unimaginable Doom's national animal is the Sable Hawk, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Unimaginable Doom is ranked 182,961^st in the world and 9,016^th in The North Pacific for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -6.2 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
