The Empire of Ultra Militarist Japan is a huge, orderly nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 274 million Japanese 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 relatively small, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 15.0%.

The thriving Ultra Militarist Japanian economy, worth 20.7 trillion Japanese Yen a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Woodchip Exports, and Gambling. Average income is 75,620 Japanese Yen, with the richest citizens earning 8.9 times as much as the poorest.

Translators have been hired to deal with the varying regional accents during national political debates, it is popularly believed that "cheese every day keeps disaster away", lines of trenches demarcate the nation's borders, and the armed forces are locked in an expensive and bloody war abroad to stamp out possible terrorists. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate. Ultra Militarist Japan's national animal is the Green pheasant, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Ultra Militarist Japan is ranked 42,654^th in the world and 1,017^th in the Rejected Realms for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 5,163.39 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
