The Republic of Paraguay of Niwae is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Alexander II Von Kraskov with an iron fist, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, frequent executions, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical population of 9.581 billion Slavics 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 prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Education, and Industry are also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vaslistria. The average income tax rate is 66.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Slavic economy, worth a remarkable 2,121 trillion DURS a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 221,392 DURS, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Mums always ask their three-year-olds for permission before hugging them, access to the woods is only granted to those who bring a small shrubbery, the government has to take out its Visa to eliminate visas, and trade policy consists of ganging up on the new guy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Niwae's national animal is the South Slavic Leopard, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Deism.

Niwae is ranked 27,867^th in the world and 36^th in Commonwealth of Liberty for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 5,941.4 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
