The Totalitarian Republic of The_Herrscher_Wolfe is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Hinote Hazukashi with an even hand, and notable for its parental licensing program, anti-smoking policies, and smutty television. The compassionate population of 19.492 billion Herrscherians 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.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Okami City. The average income tax rate is 90.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving The_Herrscher_Wolfean economy, worth a remarkable 1,457 trillion Varphis a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Arms Manufacturing industry. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is 74,767 Varphis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government has stated an intention to min-max its stats for 'teh pwnage', nuclear physics is the most popular course at university, the new national anthem passes the Turing Test, and prisoners regularly escape detention posing as scarecrows. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The_Herrscher_Wolfe's national animal is the wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Okami no Michi.
