The Woundours Waltz of Neo338 is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its public floggings, avant-garde cinema, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 7.281 billion Neo338ians 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 large, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 67.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Neo338ian economy, worth 592 trillion dollars 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 a large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Tourism. 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 81,381 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Escaped birthday balloons are torpedoed out of the sky, small children are learning a lot of new words from a teacher with Tourette Syndrome, it's not only teenagers who mess around with fake IDs, and commuters travel in zigzags to avoid stalking accusations. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Neo338's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Neo338 is ranked 232,842^nd in the world and 8,169^th in Alliance of Supreme Powers for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 26,611.63 Standard Monetary Units.
