The Dictatorship of Wargenheim is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Maxwell with an iron fist, and renowned for its frequent executions, complete lack of prisons, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 1.532 billion Wargenheimians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Law & Order, Education, and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sophos. The average income tax rate is 60.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Wargenheimian economy, worth 297 trillion Wargenheim credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 194,205 Wargenheim credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.
Hit TV show 'The eXecution Factor' is a critical success, the WBI Channel Tunnel project is plagued by delays, drill sergeants yell in the ears of bespectacled nerds in cybermilitary "reboot camps", and those who investigate UFOs tend to wake up delirious on abandoned roads. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Wargenheim's national animal is the Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Wargenheim is ranked 73,167th in the world and 29th in Lone Wolves United for Most Influential, scoring 500 on the Soft Power Disbursement Rating.
