The Dominion of Ruin Imperium is a huge, cultured nation, renowned for its frequent executions, otherworldly petting zoo, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 533 million Ruin Imperiumians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 38.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Ruin Imperiumian economy, worth 57.5 trillion rand a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Furniture Restoration, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 107,842 rand, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 320,651 per year while the poor average 28,436, a ratio of 11.3 to 1.

Manual labourers must be willing to have cybernetic limbs to get a job, Dogman-branded weapons are all the rage in the militaristic comic-book community, frustrated teenage boys are told that if they like it then they should have put a ring on it, and doughnut-makers claim their products are healthy because they are fortified with vitamins. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Ruin Imperium's national animal is the alicorn, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Ruin Imperium is ranked 302,507^th in the world and 1,291^st in Europe for Most Primitive, scoring -325.56 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
