The Authoritarian Empire of Wamia is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Roi Wamiana with an iron fist, and remarkable for its aversion to nipples, pith helmet sales, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 3.559 billion Wamians 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 juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Willisopholis. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 91.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Wamian economy, worth 684 trillion Wamian Kronor a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Information Technology, and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 192,397 Wamian Kronor, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 912,863 per year while the poor average 23,929, a ratio of 38.1 to 1.

Police drones follow every suspected Peeping Tom, postmen have been arrested in job lots for selling junk mail as home insulation, political visitors are forced to stop ten paces from Roi Wamiana's throne, and cowboys often wear wolfskin jackets to the saloon. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Wamia's national animal is the eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Wamian Catholicism.

Wamia is ranked 112,508th in the world and 544th in Europe for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 1,956.85 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
