The Republic of Warachica is a huge, safe nation, notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, compulsory military service, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 286 million Warachicans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 79.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Warachican economy, worth 8.38 trillion pounds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 29,314 pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Sexually-starved male dinosaurs terrorise tourists during weekly breakouts from Mesozoic Park, designer truncheons are the latest law enforcement fashion craze, veterans in wheelchairs are left waist-deep in rice paddies to gather grain, and first-time moms are expected to be experienced parents from day one. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Warachica's national animal is the horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Warachica is ranked 184,880^th in the world and 2,776^th in The East Pacific for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 924.75 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
