The Musical Plague of Tap-Dancing Demons is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Sweets with an iron fist, and renowned for its deadly medical pandemics, public floggings, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 40.998 billion Tap-Dancing Demonsians 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 enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sunnydale. The average income tax rate is 74.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Tap-Dancing Demonsian economy, worth a remarkable 5,727 trillion Child Brides 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 Furniture Restoration, Tourism, Uranium Mining, and Basket Weaving. 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 impressive 139,707 Child Brides, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.
Panicking criminals no longer flush contraband down the toilet, the only soporific permitted during sermons is the preacher's voice, the nation has declared its intention to "stretch out", and bands of paramedics walk the streets looking for suspicious medical activity. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive. Tap-Dancing Demons's national animal is the Vampire Slayer, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Whedonism.
Tap-Dancing Demons is ranked 56,310th in the world and 9th in Haiku for Most Patriotic, with 24.91 flags saluted per person per day.
