The Lurid Army under the Spell of The High Priest is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by The High Priest of Darkness with an iron fist, and remarkable for its anti-smoking policies, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and avant-garde cinema. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 20.556 billion Dark Soldiers are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The tiny, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dark City Temples. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 3.3%.

The powerhouse Dark soldierly economy, worth a remarkable 3,221 trillion silber coins a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Pizza Delivery, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an impressive 156,711 silber coins, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,205,058 per year while the poor average 5,457, a ratio of 220 to 1.

Bleach is the nation's most common pesticide, Humongo-Mart's Beef 'n Holy Crow Lasagne is a hit, spies caught in The High Priest are never heard from again, and poaching has been on the rise after animals from the nation's zoos were released into the wild. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force. The High Priest's national animal is the Holy Crow, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is some-crazy-sick religion.

The High Priest is ranked 7,110th in the world and 2nd in Macedon for Most Stationary, with 2,777.90751380472 days.
