The Woodhouse Sanctum of FWA-1 is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its enslaved workforce, avant-garde cinema, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 23.792 billion FWA-1ians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The large government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Social Policy. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 38.1%.
The strong FWA-1ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,224 trillion $$s a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 51,477 $$s, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 227,564 per year while the poor average 7,284, a ratio of 31.2 to 1.
Census workers are having a hard time figuring out who is actually living in FWA-1 after the ban on emigration was lifted, artists regularly face criminal charges and art-burning parties are common, pet owners exercise their ^-^s at a snail's pace or risk prosecution, and social media sites prompt users to send birthday greetings to unresponsive nonagenarians. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. FWA-1's national animal is the ^-^, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
FWA-1 is ranked 181,893rd in the world and 1st in French West Africa for Most Corrupt Governments, with 2.72 kickbacks per hour.
