The Christian Empire of Wangoe is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Emperor Clovis with an even hand, and notable for its zero percent divorce rate, keen interest in outer space, and avant-garde cinema. The compassionate, hard-working, cheerful, devout population of 16.606 billion Wangoens enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sardosa. The average income tax rate is 85.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Wangoean economy, worth a remarkable 2,999 trillion Aureuses a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 180,618 Aureuses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Getting milk from the local corner store no longer requires donning advanced hiking gear, kids' party bags often contain candy and e-cigarettes, the carbon footprint falls along with the human footprint during war, and meat-eating is frowned upon. Crime is totally unknown. Wangoe's national animal is the Golden eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Orthodox Catholic.

Wangoe is ranked 264,048^th in the world and 701^st in Europe for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -6.13 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
