The Snarky Souls of The Warriors of Determination is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The 10 Soul Council with a fair hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, compulsory military service, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 8.518 billion Determination Warriors hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, corrupt, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Centre of Hopes and Dreams. The average income tax rate is 40.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Determination Warrior economy, worth a remarkable 1,236 trillion GOLDS a year, is fairly diversified and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 145,133 GOLDS, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

NationStates is now a popular brand of laxatives despite Max Barry's protests, wealthy parents-to-be can select their perfect baby, billions are being spent on a new island airport, and economists claim no news is good news. Crime is moderate, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. The Warriors of Determination's national animal is the Ten Souls, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Any Religion.

The Warriors of Determination is ranked 60,070th in the world and 701st in the West Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 3,545.58 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
