The Authoritarian Empire of Wamia is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Roi Wamiana with an iron fist, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, triple-decker prams, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 3.63 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 large, 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. The average income tax rate is 91.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Wamian economy, worth 695 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 191,480 Wamian Kronor, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

The carcasses of double-deckers can be found littering high streets all around the country, Roi Wamiana's latest speech included a bizarre reference to MaxWow incontinence pads being 50% more absorbent than the next leading brand, citizens live in superstitious fear of the mysterious glowing clouds that float over Wamia, and vacationing Wamians expect to be treated as royalty. 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 83,521^st in the world and 765^th in Europe for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 95.83 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
